🇧🇷 Quero agradecer a todos por tantas mensagens de carinho após a entrevista no Conversa de ontem. Um trabalho como o meu requer horas de isolamento em um universo particular, o que dificulta o meu entendimento e percepção do alcance que tenho hoje.

gshow.globo.com/programas/conv…
Ter tanta gente disposta a receber minha arte e, quem sabe, aprender um pouco com o conteúdo que tenho a compartilhar, é uma sorte imensurável. Mais ainda, poder usar esse alcance para falar de algo tão visceral e particular quanto o meu diagnóstico é uma sorte ainda maior...
... e por isso quero agradecer ao @PBiaL e a @appel_camila pelo espaço que recebi para falar do assunto. Sei o quanto é importante encontrar pessoas de referência para seguir diante de um mundo de desinformações.
Jamais me colocarei na posição de porta voz de uma comunidade tão imensa e diversa, com experiências absolutamente distintas, mas espero que ao compartilhar minha história, muitos possam ter o incentivo que (talvez) faltasse para buscarem entender quem realmente são.
Por fim, nunca deixarei de agradecer a minha amiga @andreawerner_, que foi quem deu início a tudo o que veio depois. Ela teve a sensibilidade de me enxergar além do óbvio, e colocou na minha vida a Dra Raquel Del Monde, de quem não consigo falar sem sentir enorme gratidão...
... respeito e amor. Ela me apresentou a mim mesma. Tirou o peso de anos de julgamento e auto cobrança, e me ajudou a enxergar o mundo como realmente é pela primeira vez, sem a necessidade de me encaixar em padrões e me amarrar a expectativas irreais e distantes de quem eu sou.
Por isso e por tanto mais, serei grata pra sempre. Só amor. Aos que acompanham meu trabalho, estendo minha gratidão. O programa completo já está disponível na @globoplay: globoplay.globo.com/v/9362939/prog…

Um beijo, e obrigada! ❤️

When you’re autistic, you’ll have days when you’ll struggle to complete very basic tasks and do “simple” things like saying a mere “yes” or “no” to somebody - and you’ll feel completely exhausted after doing so.

This is me today.
I could pretend that everything is fine today, but I want you to know that there are many challenges and the days can be incredibly difficult. This is not only about having “superpowers” (I hate this concept). But that’s exactly when you can see who really accepts you as you are.
And I’m not saying that for any selfish reason. But as someone with a platform, it’s important for me to use my voice and share my experiences whenever I can.

Dolores Cacuango was a pioneer in the fight for indigenous rights in Ecuador. She stood out in the political arena and was one of the first activists of Ecuadorian feminism. #WHM2021

"We are like the straw from the fells of the Andes, while you pull it out, it grows again." Image
Dolores was well aware of the difficult situation of indigenous women in the Haciendas, often being raped, beaten and forced to work without any remuneration, but appealed to the whole of society with her words.
“We want the indigenous to know who they are giving birth to, so they are never again raped by their devil boss, so no more children are born without a father and be despised children,” she used to say.

Colorized by me: One of four pedlars who slept in the cellar of 11 Ludlow Street rear, ca. 1890.

Original taken by Jacob Riis.
Riis was a notable American newspaper reporter, social reformer, and photographer. His most famous work, How the Other Half Lives (1890), shed light on the plight of the slums in New York City. (socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu)
“‘Are you not looking too much to the material condition of these people,’ said a good minister to me after a lecture in a Harlem church last winter, ‘and forgetting the inner man?’
