Day 2: #redinstead selfie

In protest of Autism Speaks, a hate group that speaks over #ActuallyAutistic people, many Autistic people rather than light it up blue, do #redinstead #toneitdowntaupe or #lightitupgold.

Today I'm doing #redinstead

Also important to note that some Autistic advocates I really respect are concerned about red being the color for this because it can often be too bright and overstimulating for people with color hypersensitivities.

I think this is a very good point and I am wearing more toned down red colors. Also I don't really have clothes in the other colors.
