  • Summary

  • Language matters when discussing autism, and it is important to use inclusive and empowering language that recognizes the abilities and strengths of autistic individuals. In this episode, Simon and Jordan are joined by Dr. Luke Beardon, Author and Senior Lecturer in Autism at The Autism Centre, Sheffield Hallam University. Dr Luke talks about the majority of students in his courses studying autism being autistic, the negative narratives and misinformation surrounding autism, the us vs them narrative, gaslighting and professional misinformation, the identity crisis faced by late-diagnosed individuals, and the criticism of high-functioning individuals on the autism spectrum.
