Storytelling has so much power for autistic people – but our stories are often told in ways that leave us silenced, unheard, or invalidated. This happens because ableism is pervasive in our culture. Autistic people can internalize ableism in a way that negatively impacts our own self-worth, self-esteem, and decisions to share our identities with the world. Those same attitudes also are grounded in stereotypes that hold us back throughout our lives. How do we get rid of barriers to access to be more inclusive and allow autistic people to fully be themselves? Join Haley for a candid conversation all about ableism and how access is a form of compassion and care for us all.
