As the only Indian American kid in town, Lekha Divekar feels like she has two versions of herself: Home Lekha, who loves Bollywood movies and Indian food, and School Lekha, who pins her hair over her bindi birthmark and avoids confrontation. When a girl Lekhaa�TMs age moves in across the street, Lekha is excited to hear that shea�TMs Desi, too! Finally, there will be someone else who gets it. But as soon as Avantika speaks, Lekha realizes shea�TMs new to this country and not at all like Lekha. Avantika doesna�TMt take the bullying quietly. And she proudly displays her culture no matter where she is. When a racist incident rocks Lekhaa�TMs community, Lekha realizes she must make a choice: remain silent or find her voice.
