Show notes:
- "Nothing about us without us." - No policy should be decided by any representative without the full and direct participation of members of the group(s) affected by that policy.
- "Autism Community" - Larger, more powerful, better-funded group of people talking about autism. But primarily are not themselves autistic. There are some autistic allies, but they are often amplifying non-autistic voices.
- "Autistic Community" - Autistic people talking about autism, with some non-autistic allies who put Autistic voices first in the conversation about autism.
