Autistic spaces - an introduction

This is a video about a few different things. First, it is about why you should build spaces for autistic people, and help us build them ourselves. Second it...

The words “building spaces for autistic people” over a castle background. There are bookshelves in the corners and candles on the floor and a window in the middle. In the top right there is an autistic pride flag of 5 different colors.

interesting do you have any other reading on it? When I found the flag that is how it was described. The colors were chosen specifically as a relation to the autistic experience
