Deafula is a personal zine by Kerri R., based out of Philadelphia.
Started in 2010, it focuses on Kerri's experience as a Deaf person in a hearing world. It's informative and introspective, yet still manages to be comical and occasionally witty.
Deafula has so far covered topics like the story of Kerri's hearing loss from scarlet fever, disability identity politics, relay calls, health insurance, and social exclusion.
