Join us for the UMBC screening of BEING MICHELLE which follows the courageous journey of a Deaf and disabled woman who survived incarceration and abuse under unimaginable circumstances by a system that refused to accommodate her needs as a Deaf person with autism in Lowell Prison, Florida. Michelle's trajectory changed when she met Kim Law, a blind volunteer life coach who teaches classes to people in prison. Popcorn will be provided.
