You still haven't apologized for "Autism Every Day," where a leader in your organization talked about fantasizing about killing her daughter while her daughter was in the room. You haven't apologized for Suzanne Wright's op-ed comparing autism to domestic violence. (1/2)
You haven't acknowledged, apologized, or in any way taken responsibility for the huge role that your organization, specifically, has played in directly increasing stigma and fear of autistic people through years of PSAs and damaging rhetoric. (2/3)
