The ABCs of Autism Acceptance
Description
Sparrow Rose Jones is probably best, known for their blog, Unstrange Mind: Remapping My World, and their previous book, No You Don't: Essays from an Unstrange Mind, both of which deftly narrate their examination of them self, their identity as an Autistic person, and the changing state of access and civil rights for Autistic people. Their essays have, covered everything from famous civil rights and criminal cases in the media to sexuality and relationships, life skills, coping mechanisms, and personal introspection. In The ABCs of Autism Acceptance, Sparrow takes us through a guided tour of the topics most central to changing the way that autism is perceived, to remove systemic barriers to access that have traditionally been, barriers to Autistic participation in some sectors of society. They also, take us through the basics of Autistic culture, discussing many of its major features and recent developments with a sense of history and making the current, state of the conversation around this form of neuro-divergence clear to those, who are new to it, whether they are, Autistic themselves or a friend/family member looking for resources to help themselves support, the Autistic people in their lives more fully. While it is impossible to capture the full scope and diversity of Autistic communities-and there are many of them out there-this book does serve as an important conversation starter, a primer, and a humble guide to the world. In these 26 short essays, you will find most of the topics most often blogged about by Actually Autistic authors, including footnotes, resources, and references to other writers whose works continue the conversations that start here.
