A “kite” in street culture is a letter sent to and from individuals caught up in the prison system. Phone usage is limited in prison so many turn to the postal service to keep in contact with the outside world, though the process can be slow. Travis gives mobile phones to his comrades in prison so they can communicate in real time. It could be risky if the prison prohibits such items.
