An episode that tries to make it make sense.In Episode 124 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, “Justice for Victor,” we confront the tragic police killing of 17-year-old autistic Puerto Rican teen Victor Perez and the systemic failures that led to his death. Centering voices from the Black neurodivergent community, this powerful conversation demands a reimagining of autistic justice beyond white-centered narratives. This episode is a call to action for the autism and neurodiversity movements to prioritize true equity, accountability, and liberation for all.Here's what we cover in today's episode: * In this powerful and somber episode, Angela is joined by Black autistic advocates Faith Clarke and Darren Calhoun to discuss the heart breaking murder of Victor Perez, a non-speaking autistic Puerto Rican teenager.* On April 5th, Victor Perez—a 17-year-old autistic, disabled Puerto Rican teen—was shot by police in his own front yard. He is no longer with us. And now, his family is left to grieve in a system that failed him at every level.* Darren Calhoun is a justice advocate, worship leader, and photographer based in Chicago. He's the co-host of the Second Sunday podcast, and his work bridges communities across race, gender, and neurodivergence. Darren is a powerful voice for intersectionality and faith-based inclusion, and he's someone who speaks truth with clarity and compassion.* Faith Clarke wrote her best selling book Parenting Like a Ninja with Angela and it was based in part on her experience as a business owner and mom of a non-speaking autistic son (and a couple of other neurodivergent humans too).* We are especially grateful to Tiffany Hammond who you might remember from our Monster's High episode a couple of weeks ago — whose writing on her fidgets and fries Instagram in response to Victor's death called me into deeper reflection. Her words were a turning point for us.* Victor's Go Fund Me: https://www.gofundme.com/f/justice-for-victor-perez“quotes”Victor is not the first. He joins a growing list of young, Black and Brown neurodivergent lives—Stephon Watts. Elijah McClain. Ryan Gainer.Their stories demand justice.This episode is about what happened. What should have happened. And what needs to happen next—if we truly want a movement that's rooted in liberation for all of us.

An episode that's spooky and spectacular! Here's what's in store for today's episode: * Today's episode is all about the Monster High franchise! It's a perfect topic since, as autistic people, we often relate to monsters—feeling different and set apart, just like they do.* Our special guest for this episode is Tiffany Hammond from the Fidgets and Fries Instagram account! An autistic mother and advocate, her activism is deeply rooted in intersectionality and challenging mainstream perceptions of autism.* We dive into all things advocacy, from the complexities of the “autism mom” narrative to the unique challenges of navigating the advocacy space as a Black autistic person.* We discuss the realities of autistic individuals encountering law enforcement and the often terrifying challenges that come with these interactions. From misunderstandings and sensory overload to the potential for dangerous outcomes, we explore why these situations can be so distressing and what needs to change to make them safer.* Tiffany also shares her experience teaching her Black autistic children about race, highlighting the unique challenges and nuances that come with discussing identity, privilege, and discrimination with neurodivergent kids.* Additionally, Tiffany then shares her experience consulting with Mattel on Twyla Boogeyman, the first canonically autistic Monster High character. She discusses the process of ensuring authentic representation, the importance of neurodivergent voices in media, and what this milestone means for autistic fans.* From body language to stim objects, every detail was carefully considered to ensure an authentic and meaningful portrayal of autism in Twyla's character.* Finally, we explore the many forms of autism representation in media and the importance of diverse portrayals. While no single character can represent every autistic person, authentic representation can still make a powerful impact—helping even one autistic individual feel seen and understood.“We [autistic folks] tend to have an affinity for monsters because we are often misunderstood. We are often persecuted, villainized, & made out to be the bad guy because we are different. So, we often want to extend courtesy to monsters, because we say, ‘that beast surely is misunderstood. Perhaps there's good things there.'” - Matt"“That's a big problem with the world in general, because a lot of the world, especially neurotypical people, operate with sound bytes and hashtags and making things as simplistic as possible. But when you have the complex intersectionality of racism and colonialism and ableism and all this stuff contributing to make a real, massive threat, a danger to your existence, it's so much bigger than that.” - Matt“She [Twyla Boogeyman] represents one kind of representation of what autism can be. This is just an invitation for the audience to learn more, for you to see that there is disabled representation, even in animated, made-up shows.” - Tiffany Hammond Did you enjoy this episode? We explored the impact of autism representation in media, from Monster High's canonically autistic character to the power of seeing ourselves reflected in pop culture.

Navigating the world of autism advocacy can be an emotional and complex journey, filled with deeply personal conversations about identity, representation, and systemic change. In this episode, Patrick Casale and Dr. Megan Anna Neff, two AuDHD mental health professionals, talk with Tiffany Hammond, mother, storyteller, and the creator of Fidgets and Fries, about the intricate landscape of autism advocacy, especially done through stories, which Tiffany says are the best teachers, to create relatability and allow space for people to feel how they feel. Top 3 reasons to listen to the entire episode: Gain insight into the debate over autism symbols, like the puzzle piece, and explore who decides what represents a community—a conversation that extends beyond iconography to embody the true essence of representation and inclusion. Listen to Tiffany Hammond as she explores the diverse spectrum of Autistic experiences with an intersectional lens. She delves into the lives of non-speaking individuals and those in the offline community, broadening our understanding of advocacy and highlighting the urgent need for genuine societal change. Learn about Tiffany's journey through advocacy as she bridges the gap between storytelling and education, challenging academic approaches, and embracing raw, emotional realities, paving the way for authentic conversations on race, disability, and privilege. For many within the autism community, advocacy is not just about raising awareness. It's about challenging deeply ingrained beliefs and constructs, fighting for a space where a diversity of voices, especially those often overlooked or marginalized, are heard and appreciated, acknowledging the diversity of experiences, and working toward a future that honors all. Whether online or off, it's important to work toward a future that embraces every piece of the spectrum. More about Tiffany Hammond: Tiffany Hammond is the voice behind Fidgets and Fries.

In Episode 65, Ben chats with Tiffany Joseph, producer of Nigh Functioning Autism.  Tiffany is a mom to three children two of whom are diagnosed with autism and ADHD. Tiffany, who is Autistic herself, is also a user of Augmentative and Alternate Communication (AAC) and does a lot of advocacy work for both Autistics and AAC users. In this episode, Tiffany communicates almost entirely using her speech-generating AAC device and none of the pauses where Tiffany is typing on her device are removed from the recording so listeners can understand what communication with an AAC user is really like.  We discuss important issues like AAC Trauma, oralism, and the presumption of competence in all users.  For this episode, all continuing education credits will be FREE, but you must listen to the entire episode including the pauses in order to hear the secret words.   The video recording of this episode will also be published on YouTube so listeners can experience the full interaction.  The secret words will not be on the videos so it's suggested that you play the audio track while watching the video on mute.   Here's the link to the video: https://youtu.be/5qAJtBGZzKA   Continuing Education Units (CEUs): https://cbiconsultants.com/shop BACB: 2.0 Learning IBAO: 2.0 Cultural  QABA: 2.0 DEI    Contact Tiffany: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nigh.functioning.autism Linktree: https://lnk.bio/autism   The Behaviour Speak Podcast Episodes Referenced: Episode 45 - Tiffany Hammond: https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-45-advocating-for-systemic-change-with-tiffany-hammond-of-fidgets-fries Episode 47 - Katie Rinald: https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode47-toilet-training-what-s-the-point-with-dr-katie-rinald   Web Links: Tiffany Hammond's Book - A Day With No Words: https://a.co/d/9jQw3QB Dynavox: https://us.tobiidynavox.com Proloquo: https://www.assistiveware.com/products/proloquo Alex Magnussen TedxTalk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dP470cMTBFM

She is Black woman with  Autism, a mother to two boys with autism, an advocate, and a storyteller.  Tiffany uses her personal experiences with Autism and parenting her two boys to guide others on their journey.

Tiffany shares the backstory to Fidgets and Fries, and how her online community has had her back as her platform grows.  We also hear about how and why writing while angry has a true purpose and message that should not be dismissed or ignored, but accepted, appreciated and honored. -----Tiffany on Instagram: @fidgets.and.fries Shout Out: @nigh.functioning.autism Row House Publishing on Instagram: @rowhousepubPodcast Transcriptions Available: www.rowhousepublishing.com/podcast ​​Learn more about Row House Publishing and our mission to Raise the Volume on Voices That Matter™: http://rowhousepublishing.com Original Book Stoop theme: anonymousCover art: Danielle Pioli (https://www.daniellepioli.com)

Discover what's possible when the audience takes the mic.  This week, we are celebrating the one-year anniversary of our podcast! It's been an eye-opening journey that continues to leave us surprised, inspired, and moved.  We've learned so much from self-advocates sharing their experiences, family members talking about accepting their children's diagnoses, and professionals discussing best practices in the field of autism services.  We've covered a wide range of topics, such as ableism, masking, the neurodiversity movement, intersectionality, disability rights, cultural humility, and international collaboration. A huge thank you to all of our guests for openly sharing your stories and educating us about your perspectives.  In today's episode, we'll be highlighting some of our dedicated listeners who have continuously supported this podcast over the last year. We want to give our community a chance to express what they've taken away from listening to the show. You'll hear from Cameron Burrell, Griffen Wharbolt, Swathi Srinivas, Mary Johnston, Carrin Whitehurst, Nicole Ezcurra, Colleen Dorsey, and Liz Castillo.  I'd like to give a special shout-out to Liz, who had been working as a Global Autism Project team member until the beginning of this month. She just recently had her second child and is busy embarking on a new chapter, but she'll always be a part of the team. Liz had been cultivating relationships with our community on social media since we launched the podcast. Not only did she ensure our guests' messages reached our followers, she also encouraged our audience to listen with an open mind. Liz has played an integral role in reminding us to do with the autistic community and not for them. This compilation episode was actually her idea. She's been a trusted colleague, a dear friend, and just such a beautiful human all around. We wish you all the best in your new endeavors, Liz!  Other team members who help make this podcast happen are Trang Tran and Linda Zheng. Trang, thank you for creating our beautiful visuals and audiograms week after week. Linda, thank you for managing guest relations and keeping us organized. And of course, this podcast wouldn't even be possible without Molly believing in the idea from day one.  Episodes mentioned: 39. Why the World Needs All Kinds of Minds, with Dr. Temple Grandin  33.
