On to today’s episode. I’m going to replay an interview I did with Julia Bascom, the executive director of the Autistic Self Advocacy Network. This interview is from 2017. Wow. That is almost six years ago.
Here’s what I cover with Julia Bascom in this episode:
1. The importance of self-advocacy for autistic people and how it can help create a more inclusive society.
2. The challenges of autistic people having to advocate for themselves, and how they are often left out of conversations that involve the disability community.
3. The need for allies to step up and support autistic people, to create understanding and acceptance.
Thanks for listening, and if you haven’t already, please give us a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
