These are my friends @frankcommunityfarm, creating their works of art sold locally in Richmond. If you would like to make a purchase to support them, you may do so through @frankcommunityfarm. You can also donate through the link in my bio, as well as read their response to the recent RTD article: “Bring more light to decisions about autism and the classroom”. (Link in their bio) My life has been forever changed and enriched just to know my friends at FCF. When we get to work together, they always say how much they like working with me and ask when I will be back. I have never felt so accepted in my life. Certainly not by another coworker. # I can’t change @rtdnews mind. I can only invite them to get involved. Hoping they transform into strong advocates for Autism/neurodiversity in society, schools, and the workforce. A great way to give back to our community is through @frankcommunityfarm. Frank Community fills this even more apparent and desperate need for neurodiversity in the workforce. I will be sending a letter to the editor. If you would like to speak to them as well, you can call and leave a recorded message for RTD at 804.649.6305 or write a response to: “Letters: Readers respond to RTD editorial on autism”. # To Bacon, I have to assume you wrote the article: I want your job. You do not deserve it. Being a voice in the community comes with great responsibility and you are unfit to lead. And sir, there is nothing “normal” about me, and that’s a beautiful thing. It keeps me free from forming an archaic egotistical mindset such as your own. The future is diverse, accessible, and inclusive! # Highlights from: “Who Speaks for the “Normal” Kids?” on Bacons Rebellion continued in the comments. “That still leaves the other 60% of disciplinary cases caused by students who are not “disabled.” Many, no doubt, are poor and have not been socialized according to middle-class behavioral norms. I’m sure every one of them has a heart-wrenching tale to tell. Most were neglected, abused or suffered extreme hardship in some way. What about their “rights?” Here’s my argument: My right to swing my fist ends at your nose. Likewise, no one has a “right” to participate
