Description
Motivational Speaker and Poet Russell Lehmann joins us for a second time to share his perspectives on the words we use when discussing autism. Having spent most of his life in isolation, Russell has found his voice and independence in recent years. His passion for erasing stigma and stereotypes about autism is shared through his moving, spoken-word poetry. In this discussion Russell shares, "If you don't know, ask. When talking to someone and you don't know how to refer to them, ask them. Preface that you are learning. Be honest and respectful."
