Celebrating Autism with Clydie9
Manage episode 342822952 series 2362729
I had the pleasure of meeting Clydie at TwitchCon Amsterdam this year at a meetup for just chatting streamers. And he said something which let me knew I just had to have him on the show: "Autism awareness, or acceptance is not enough, we should be promoting autism celebration"
Autism is not something that is "wrong" with a person's brain, it is merely something that is "different" and often these differences are things that the neuro-typical world actually benefit from. However due to years of stigma and being treated as wrong, many autistic people still have low self image because they are simply not accepted in this world.
These differences are not there to just be aware of, or to simply be accepted. But instead celebrated for what they bring to the world and this is something that Clydie speaks very passionately about!
