Autistic History Month (begun anew) November 2016: Submissions Open!

Submissions are now open until November 1!

Welcome to Autistic History Month begun anew! Submissions are now open to Autistics and our supporters/allies.

A group of Autistic activists originally conceptualized this project in 2013 to record our autistic history through a variety of media, and they chose the month of November for Autistics Speaking Day. Our goal is to both provide a place where autistic people and supporters/allies can submit writing about aspects of autistic history or their family’s autistic history, and a place that can contain oral histories and interviews with activists. We have a rich culture and history, and it deserves to be told.

To submit a publication, oral history, or activist interview, please go to our Submissions page. If you participate, you get a cool icon (with more to come) and the knowledge that you are helping to preserve autistic history and culture.

The deadline is November 1, but we will grant extensions into the month of November.
