‘Deej,’ Film about Autism and Inclusion, to Screen on Sept. 25

This month, the team behind the acclaimed new documentary, “Deej,” launches the Deej Inclusion Tour, a series of more than 50 campus and community screenings across the United States. The goal is to promote inclusion—in families, schools and communities—of all neuro-divergent people, especially nonspeaking autistics. The Deej tour stops at Syracuse University on Monday, Sept. 25, when the film screens at Watson Hall Theater at 6 p.m.  The event is free and open to the public.

The screening will be followed by a discussion with DJ “Deej” Savarese.

The film is captioned; American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation and Communication Access Realtime Translation (CART) will be available for the discussion. Parking is available in the Booth Garage on Comstock Ave. Additional accessible parking is in the Q5 lot on University Place. If you have requests for accessibility and accommodations, please contact Dani Weinstein at 315.443.9379 or daweinst@syr.edu.
