Event Details
Join us for a lecture and Q&A in this year's Barbara Ballinger Lecture with author and WBEZ Journalist Natalie Moore, in conversation with local radio host Doris Davenport. Moore is the author of the book The Billboard, a play about abortion, which was produced as a play by 16th Street Theater. The Billboard is about a fictional Black women’s clinic in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood on the South Side and how it gets involved in the public debate over abortion.
