Misconception/stigma

How you'd challenge it (your message)

Target audience (who you want to hear your message)

A statistic to back up your message

"Autism has a distinctive look or Appearance"

Most of the time, you wouldn't notice if one is autistic unless they told you

Anyone who feels/thinks autism is something to pinpoint in someone based on their appearance

Spoken Language

Sign Language

Symbol Systems (using picture boards or electronics to communicate)

Echolalia

Non-verbal communication

you can challenge it by showing different types of autistic people and ways they may live their lives differently

the target audience is non autistic people or those who aren’t too familiar with autistic people

The misconception of autistic people is that people think autistic people are not cool and can’t do cool things.

I challenge this to play guitar.

I would like to target the audience who miss the big picture of autistic people and those who don’t understand.

Disability people like Stephen Hawking, who have neurone disease at the age of 21, research black holes.

Albeit Einstein, who had disability and can’t talk until he was older, research physics.

Last but not least Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was the president was paralyzed at the age of 31, created the new deal by rebuild and gain more money for the people.

These are the famous people, who have disabilities, made history.
