Go to todaysautististicmoment.com for the transcript. Autism Acceptance Month is supposed to be about Autistics. However, Autism Acceptance Month has become commodified for merchandise and arguments about Autism. Many Autistics dread the month of April because we find ourselves explaining and defending ourselves with neurotypicals who claim to be “Autism experts” but do not give Autistics the chance to use our voices or they ignore us completely. Becca and Doug will give some great advice for how Autistics can take care of themselves during what can be the worst month of the year for many.
