Free Autism/Disability Media Representation webinar on 3/30

This is a post to let you all know about our upcoming Autistics’ Roundtable Webinar, next week on Tuesday. The topic for March’s installment is the media’s representation of autism specifically and disability broadly.


To kick off the event, Claire will present the history of autism/neurodiversity on screen(and you can read an article she wrote for the Tennessean on disability in the media at this link!).
