DRLC Book Club - Deaf Utopia with Nyle DiMarco

Join us to celebrate Deaf Utopia with the author Nyle DiMarco in conversation Teddy Dorsette III of Deaf Lens on June 10th at 6pm.

A memoir by Nyle DiMarco, actor, producer, two-time reality show winner, and cultural icon of the international Deaf community.

In this moving and humorous memoir, Nyle explains what it means to navigate a world built for hearing people, and how he and other Deaf people learn to thrive in it. While he tells many stories about his rise to celebrity, winning America’s Next Top Model and Dancing with the Stars, he also wants to show readers on the richness of life within the Deaf community.

Deaf Utopia is intimate, suspenseful, hilarious, eye-opening, and smart—both a memoir and a celebration of what makes Deaf culture unique and beautiful.

The Detroit Renassiance Lions Club is partnering with Source Booksellers to present the 2021 & 2022 book club focused on book by and about the Blind and Deaf. This June read is supported with community partners Detroit Public Schools Community District Deaf and Hard of Hearing Program as well as Detroit Disability Power.
