Musings and meanderings on the autistic spectrum. May 1, 2010. Of privilege and auditory processing. Today is Blogging Against Disablism Day. And for today, I wanted to write about a sort of ableism (as we call it here in North America) that’s rather subtle and largely unconscious, but no less problematic.
