Essays and antidotes from many authors
Some stunning essays on the systemic and constant framing of autistic people and people with mental illness as violent, due to behavioral differences (and in the case of these essays, being racialized) - as well as the way people take away autonomy ("no theory of mind" trope, etc. vs. "the double empathy problem") - socially, legally, and more.
