Mural by deaf people in Sucre

A wall divides deaf people from the justice they are working for.

A girl looks into a mirror and sees herself as a teacher. The current education system rarely provides teaching in sign language, excluding most deaf people from the opportunity to gain the qualifications needed to become teachers themselves. The person looking into the mirror would teach deaf people about their identity if she could become a teacher.

A boy, dressed ready to play, watches a football game from the other side of the wall. He would like to play professional football, but as they use a whistle he is excluded. If only they would use visual signs he would be able to play.
