We need genuine allies

The objectives of the Autistic and neurodiversity civil rights movements overlap significantly with the struggles of indigenous peoples. We can either fully embrace the inevitable cultural evolution that has been triggered by the sixth mass existing event, i.e. by suicidal anthropocentrism, or it will be imposed on us by the forces far beyond human control that we have unleashed.

We need genuine allies – on an ongoing basis, but not to run our organisations or to mentor us on how to run organisations. We need allies who work alongside us as partners. Collectively and individually, we have decades of experience in operating Autistic organisations and peer support groups, and in conducting Autistic research – all on the smell of an oily rag, usually self-funded, without any external funding support.
