Neurodiversity In Media

from It’s a Fandom Thing

We are starting topic month with a look at neurodiversity in media. Carla from Ok, Real Quick, and Sara join Erin to discuss some of the first depictions they remember seeing, why poor representation can be harmful, some of the positive portrayals, and why it feels so affirming to see those positive depictions. Trigger warnings for ableism, racism, and homophobia.
