Wonder how my born-again Christian Republican loving brother feels now about his vote when his autistic son is now on the same hit list as women, LGBTQ and the other marginalized humans??? I cannot and will not forgive or forget this, ever.

Thank you! Sometimes it feels like screaming into the void. Good to know someone hears it.

Great article Marie. I teach Career Counseling, among other things, and my students had to do presentations on career counseling for a marginalized target population. One group did theirs on people with ASD. They touched on many of your points and what made me proud of them was how they approached effective ways to help students on the spectrum in career guidance. There’s a generation coming that will revolutionize how we see marginalized groups.

The kids will lead us. And it increasingly looks like we will need them to.

Tony mentions you on his show for your grasp of history and your excellent take on writing about it. He’s right! History and politics are like a vast mystery story that you solve by getting more clues all the time.
