Yeah, it's hard to be a white women -- and also, white women weaponize the fragility that society has projected onto them, particularly to wield violence against Black men. I think we have to be able to discuss it, particularly since a lot of white women have a prominent voice in Autistic self-advocacy circles at the expense of other marginalized voices. I hope that all of us white Autistics can recognize that our liberation is bound up with that of our Black and brown siblings and learn to pass the mic more, and to acknowledge that the erasure of Autism in marginalized groups is not only gendered, it's raced and classed and so much more.
