send a bunch of links for Autism Acceptance month, which we are currently in. Many people are boycotting the purchase of certain orgs which support Autism Speaks (you can find
a list of those orgs here
) as Autism Speaks has a history of silencing autistic people in the organisation and
pairing with organizations that support abusive practices
, among
other issues
. There is a good list of
alternate resources to support
at blogher. ThinkGeek is also selling a
Neurodiversity
shirt with proceeds going to the Autistic Self-Advocacy Network. While I can't actually recommend supporting Amazon.com, if you do shop there, they offer to
donate to certain charities, including ASAN
, when you make certain purchases there.
