Unlock the secrets of impactful autism advocacy with our inspiring guest, Ben VanHook. Ben is a master's student in public policy at George Mason University and a notable disability activist and speaker. He takes us through his personal and professional journey, highlighting his advocacy efforts and vision for a more inclusive society. Discover how he has championed autistic voices on prestigious platforms like the United Nations and why it’s crucial to prioritize lived experiences over external consultation.
Join us for a deep dive into the complex terrain of privilege and intersectionality within disability advocacy. Ben and I discuss how recognizing one's privilege can be a driving force for creating equal opportunities and fostering genuine inclusivity. The conversation underscores the necessity of integrating diverse perspectives from various ethnicities, genders, and backgrounds to dismantle biases and enrich the advocacy landscape. We also stress the importance of honouring the voices that have long contributed to the movement while expanding representation.
Lastly, we shift our focus to raising societal expectations for neurodiversity. From advocating for essential supports and accommodations as fundamental human rights to the benefits of a neurodivergent workforce, Ben shares invaluable insights. Learn about the strategies for incorporating disability topics into broader events and industries and the personal journey of overcoming trauma to become a more effective advocate. Wrap up with our plans for an engaging Twitter chat to connect with our community and amplify these vital conversations. Tune in to be part of this transformative dialogue!
