"Beating the Drum: Standing up for our Rights." Conversation with Mira Hall (Part One)

from Staring Down the Storm: Autism Advocacy in America · host Tabitha Zeigler

I'm joined by fellow activist Mira Hall for a wide-ranging discussion on identity, respect, recognition, neurodiversity, activism, and most importantly: the nature of human rights.From religion to education, behavioral health, mental health, HIV/AIDS, the political climate, gender identity, school bullying, American values, patriotism, genetic testing, chronic illness - we cover a lot. And yet underpinning it all is the question of, "What it means to be a good human." How we treat each other, especially the most vulnerable. What do we want this country to stand for?As per any deep, multi-layered conversation, we needed extra time and thus two parts! Start with part one here, and come back for part two, where we explore more stories from activism, advocacy and action.How to reach Mira:Instagram (@mira.hall27)TikTok (@miramoth)We encourage you to support The Trevor Project,  the leading suicide prevention and crisis intervention nonprofit organization for LGBTQ+ young people.thetrevorproject.org/Contact Tabitha:[email protected]
