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.
House MD’s Episode “Lines in the Sand”, S03E04
It isn’t going to give you a complete view of autism (not that it intends to), but it slaps pretty hard some old ableist conceptions that are, unfortunately, still quite alive almost 20 years later.
