The people behind #CommunicationRights are not obstructionist behaviorists. @NeuroClastic has speech language pathologists, psychologists, educators, OTs, MTs, researchers, neuroscientists, & nonspeakers who communicate through AAC, spelling, & sign. #ActuallyAutistic #Autism
These people may have an aggressive approach to bullying autistics & our allies out of our own narratives & using their white (that's all white people) privilege to maintain the #monopoly on #Autism, but they are NOT allies. They are #oppressors. We can and do communicate. See?
We have orgs, individuals, & initiatives championing #CommunicationRights. @U4CommChoice @Communica1st @ekverstania @autselfadvocacy @awnnetwork_ @ReachEveryVoice and so many more. It's 2020, and we are #nonCompliant with a #Behaviorist agenda that parades itself as #science.
Since we are in the fasting month it might be worth mentioning one of the works dealing with the arcana of the faith and the mystical path such as this work of ‘Ammar al-Bidlisi (d. c. 1207) on fasting #seclusion_literature 1/ 
‘Ammar had been a disciple of the famous nurturing #Sufi shaykh Abu Najib #Suhrawardi (d. 1168) author of the famous manual of comportment and rule for the order Adab al-muridin and later initiated Najm al-Din Kubra (d. 1221) eponymous founder of the #Kubrawiyya 2/
These two texts edited and translated by Edward Badeen 1999 are very much #seclusion lit - the Ecstasy of the Folk (Bahjat al-ta’ifa) is on various notions on the mystical path including the seclusion (khalwa) with God 3/
