AWA welcomes ASAN President Ari Ne'eman and Board Member Paula Durbin Westby, organizer of Saturday October 31st Washington DC area protest against Autism Speaks. We'll be hearing from them about ASAN's protest at Autism Speaks' DC area walk-a-thon Saturday as well as the growing wave of protests against Autism Speaks around the country, why its happening, where its going, what its implications and importance will be for the neurodiversity movement & the autistic community. In addition, we'll be checking in with ASAN on some of their advocacy priorities inside the beltway, asking about how Autistic people will be impacted by the health reform packages being considered by Congress and what pending legislation on school abuse might have to help Autistic students.
We have our flag at half-staff, in memory of all those that have lost their lives eight years ago today. May we never forget and remember the families and our brave uniformed, and military still fighting today. Our whole family is wearing red today with an American flag shirt in support of our heroes and those lost.
I can hear you, the rest of the world can hear you and the people who knocked ... We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail. ... Whether we bring our enemies to justice, or bring justice to our enemies, justice will be done. ...George W. Bush. ~~
