I’m starved for good representation, I’m very tired of searching for it myself in the sludge that the mainstream internet has become, and I want recommendations. A summary of the work and what you like about it would be helpful!
With non/fiction, I am searching for works that feature autism as a major theme or element. Other creative works like essays, web video, streaming, or that otherwise fall under the “content creation” banner should have autism informing the work in some significant way. If it’s the kind of surface-level and/or clinical thing that shows up when you just search “autism” in YouTube, I don’t want it. God forbid it’s like Sia’s Music, or whatever the anti-vax crowd or Autism Speaks put out.
The Autistic Brain by Temple Grandin.
It covers the physical differences in autistic brains, and how those differences manifest in behavor and why they cause such a different perspective of the world.
