About :
Autism has no face; it is an invisible disability. Our society is used to focusing on stereotypes and to define “who is autistic and who is not”, it could not be any different. “I was lucky. But how sad it is to depend on luck to live.” The diagnostic process, costly and complex, often makes it impossible for people who are on the spectrum to understand themselves and the world based on their realities. We could live in a different society by starting to deconstruct these stereotypes; also by acting with more empathy and offering opportunities and accessibility tools. No one deserves to rely on luck if we, as a society, are to embrace diversity. Tabata is a content producer, graphic designer and speaker, as well as the entrepreneurial and creative mind behind an online store for t-shirts about neurodiversity. In addition to these incredible credentials, she is a great symbol of resistance. She accepted her lesbian identity at the age of 27, but soon after discovered diagnoses that challenged her even more within a sexist society that is very unprepared for diversity: Tabata is also autistic, has ADHD, is bipolar and is gifted. On her profile @tabata_meumundoatipico, she shares tips and lessons based on her story. ''Being a woman is an act of resistance and courage. My life journey can be summed up in a constant search to live my truth, being able to encourage other women to also be free to be who they are. In the midst of so many diagnoses, I found myself alone, without any support or information. I went online and started sharing my experiences and learnings with the goal of helping at least one autistic adult feel less alone, as I did.'' This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
