Episode #056 - Sounding Off About Autism Month

Autism Confidential returns to its usual podcast format for a discussion about April, Autism Month featuring host Jill Escher and guest Thomas McKean, a pioneering autism self-advocate. Jill and Tom discuss: Biden's signing of a proclamation declaring April "Autism Acceptance Month," historical background about Autism Month, some op-eds offering a dissenting view from the rah-rah rosy tone of April, acceptance of our kids v acceptance of autism, the very broken definition of "autism," and of course, guitar!
