Billy Porter Doesn’t Need a Month to Celebrate Pride
He celebrates Pride all year long through art – and that’s been the journey of a lifetime. He’s got an Emmy, a Grammy, a Tony. But early in his career, Billy Porter was relegated to roles of comic relief. Things didn’t change until he figured out how to show up authentically in every space. Kai sits down with Billy to hear that story. Tell us what you think. Instagram and Twitter: @noteswithkai. Email us at [email protected].
