This month is Autism Acceptance Month, and we're focusing our attention, conversations, and action planning on Anti-Ableism Activism. During this episode, we talk about Harry's experiences growing up with abusive parents in a broken system, how he's working towards becoming a more autonomous adult while still living within the confines of a broken system, and his suggestions for actions that would produce the kind of change we all want to create a more just, equitable, and peaceful world for all. He recommends that we start small, be diplomatic in our approach, validate the fears and values of others, and focus on empowering others because "social power is renewable".
