Ep. 23: The Narratives Around Us

People are very fired up in autism land, and it often relates to the conflict between speaking autistics and parents of nonspeaking autistics. There is so much that is very confidently proclaimed about our disability as nonspeaking autistics. But the glaring problem in all of this is: no one seems to care that our voices are rarely consulted or included. This is a public episode.

Ep. 21: Communication Equity

We're back for a special episode on communication equity (regular episodes resume in May!). Spelling is an amazing gift to nonspeakers and their loved ones, but there are many barriers to access to spelling. This is particularly pronounced for BIPOC communities, as well as low-income communities. We share perspectives and focus on the Communication Equity campaign by Spellers & Allies Advocacy Network at I-ASC.
