Autism Representation On Screen & On Set: Horsegirls Review
Lillian Carrier returns for our Season 2 finale to talk about autism representation and accommodations both on set and on screen. She dives into what it was like as an autistic actor playing an autistic character with different struggles than her own personal experience, and how beneficial it was to have an Autism Sensitivity Coordinator on set and an autistic producer really made a difference on set. Horsegirls, a film by Sumerian Pictures, is available now in select theaters. Call your local theaters to ask if they can show Horsegirls near you!

There is Room For Everyone
On this week on Asking Autistics, we're celebrating the power of community, empathy, and showing up as our authentic selves, all while making sure there's a wide-open seat at the table for every single person in the autistic community, whether you're non-speaking, hyper-verbal, newly discovered, or a seasoned advocate. So grab your favorite drink and tune in, because resilience is better when we build it together.
