Continue the 2022 Pride season into July! Join Philadelphia Asian & Queer on July 16 at the historic LGBTQ+ bookstore Philly AIDS Thrift @ Giovanni’s Room, for a reading by Michael Dumlao, author of The Wisdom of Guncles, a collective work of stories highlighting the familial relationships of people in the LGBTQ+ community.

The Wisdom of Guncles is a collective narrative of LGBTQ+ experiences, and their relationships with family — however they choose to define it. It features stories from guncles (gay uncles) as Dumlao features what various LGBTQ+ experiences teach about disrupting norms, exploring identity, and creating chosen families that affirm one’s truth.
