CMCL Interview - Kadin McElwain

RFK Jr.'s recent comments about autism have drawn stark criticism from the autism community. He inaccurately claimed autistic individuals "will never pay taxes, hold a job, or write a poem..."This week's guest, autism advocate and college junior, Kadin McElwain, is proving RFK Jr. wrong on every front. Julie and Kadin discuss politics and government policy, including cuts to the Department of Education and Health and Human Services. They also dive into the influence of conspiracy theories on public perception of autism. Notes: Kadin is an autistic college student, writer, and activist on a mission to raise as much awareness about autism as possible. Throughout his life, his capabilities were questioned due to the social stigmas surrounding autism. But thanks to a supportive set of parents, he proved the naysayers wrong.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA6sLh3PIrDL9O47vYnAxxXqcxK7LIidX
