Autism Spectrum Disorder: Harmful Myths vs Reality ft. Kaelynn Partlow

Описание: Misunderstandings about autism are everywhere and the media has not helped the situation. From famous to fictional autistic people, those carrying the autistic flag have historically not done a great job. A huge exception to this is Kaelynn Partlow, who has been advocating for autistic people on an international scale. Whether through Netflix's Love on the Spectrum or her own YouTube channel & interviews, she has helped to spread nuance & truth about what it is like living with autism, AS an autistic person.

So in this video I speak with her and other autistic people to understand what the truth is, go through some popular perceptions & help to readjust the perspective of what it means to be autistic.
