When is Autistics Speaking Day?
Wednesday November 1stWe all see the world in our own unique ways. Nevertheless, people with autism live in a different way from the majority of us. They live in often new ways. Perhaps one of the most important ways we all connect to and understand the world is through communication. On November 1, Autistic People on November 1st encourages autistic people to share their stories in whatever way suits them. Anyone else is encouraged to listen, read, and comprehend their stories from their point of view.
On November 1, autistic people will flood the internet with their challenges and their celebrations, their passions, and their dislikes. In several languages, they will talk about their rights and advocacy. Some may be interested in art, others with poetry, or memes. They may also be speaking via podcasts. Their words and tales may be difficult to hear, but they will be speaking. They will be speaking out about themselves, but most importantly, they will be speaking out about themselves. If you want to know, it will be a day for you to learn.
