Description:

 

Invites viewers to understand better persons who look or act different, persons whose abilities are diverse, persons who are autistic. Building on the seminal words of Martin Luther King Jr., this film first explores the discrimination evoked when a group is considered by others to be inferior. The films presents interviewers with autistic members of society who describes the discrimination they've received and who discuss their hopes for a more tolerant society. The film places autistic self-advocacy squarely in the light of disability self-advocacy and human rights. "It not being normal that's important. It's learning to accept our being different." Goodbye to the normals. It's time to treasure diversity.
