“What I Learned From a Class by and for Autistic People” quoting Professor Emily Rothman
(9/6/21, rewire news group)
Expert Quote:
“The most important thing about this class is that it’s not coming from the perspective that there is something wrong with how autistic people communicate or socialize. It’s coming from the perspective that some people are different, and different is more than OK—it actually strengthens our society—and that autistic people can use support dealing with a world that can be quite harsh about their differences.” – Professor and Chair Emily Rothman
