YA
Indian American graffiti artist Julia's latest work (covering up a slur about her friend) gets her expelled from Kingston School for the Deaf and sent to mainstream school, complete with communication breakdowns and bullying. There Julia finds she's not the only one who expresses through public art what she can't elsewhere. A nuanced narrative at the intersection of Deaf- and graffiti culture.
