In solidarity with my 7-year-old Black Autistic son
and in virtual protest with my Black disabled community,
I felt compelled to use my art to bring visibility to the
facts. More than half of Black/Brown bodies in the US
with disabilities will be arrested by the time they reach
their late 20s. We don’t see many positive stories or acts
of #AutisticJoy among Black/Brown bodies because they
don’t make headlines. ‘To Be Pro-Neurodiversity is to
be Anti-Racist’: this statement carries a lot of truth,
which directly influenced the need to create the graphic.
This symbol, created by disabled designer Jennifer
White-Johnson in 2020, combines a black fist—
representing protest and solidarity—with the
infinity symbol, which Autistic communities use to
depict the breadth of the autism spectrum as well
as the larger neurodiversity movement.
