Deej depicts the journey of DJ Savarese, a gifted young writer and advocate for non-speaking autistics. A 2017 graduate of Oberlin College, DJ will be on hand for Q+A. Be prepared to be transformed by this young man’s incredible journey and his vision for inclusion of all neurodiverse people – in family, school and community – highlighting, especially, the experience of nonspeaking autistics in our/their quest for equal access to society.
