Sensory: Life on the Spectrum by Schnumn, Bex Ollerton

emotional funny informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

 A great collection of short comics made by autistic folks about their experiences with autism. Despite recent shifts, it can still be hard to find literature that centers autistic voices, and this collection goes beyond that minimum to discuss how autism intersects with race, gender, sexuality, and class. It’s a good mix of personal anecdotes and broader discussions of issues facing the autistic community, including medical bias, access to care and resources, and marginalizing language. But this isn’t just a book about those difficulties! It is also filled with autistic joy, love, hope, and pleasure.
