  1. CW: Memoir Poem Containing: Bullying, Body Shaming, NB AFAB called "she" as a child, Fujoshi Shaming

    It costs $0 to not be weird
    and anyway, why would you want to be feared?
    A girl who wants to play with the boys...
    But the other girls share such joys!

    A body her type, shouldn't wear those,
    Doesn't she know her belly's exposed?
    A shirt that looks like, she rolled out of bed
    So her mom bought her floral blouses instead

    Can she talk about something other than games?
    To anyone else, theyre childish and lame
    And even with the kids, she cannot converse
    It's The Walking Dead, not Steven Universe.

    She reads the "yaoi", whatever it's called
    Found it in Summer, and now its Fall
    But whatever it is, must be really gross.
    She acts like she got an overdose

    She draws strange things, that look really bad
    And yet when she shows it off she's glad?
    God, please shut up, nobody cares
    Hey you! Go ask her out on a dare

    Now they're an adult, and never leave their room
    It's almost like they made it their tomb
    They struggle a lot, they're not okay
    They think about it every day

    It costs $0 to not be weird
    but it cost me my life it appears

    Honestly, I think my ability to keep my sh-t together for so long was part of my masking/passing.

    I didn't know I was #AuDHD & just had to work SO hard to function as expected.

    I kind of white-knuckled life. It's a bit of a double-edged sword when I validated my #nuerodiversity & #burnout...cause I also wasn't able anymore to "force" myself into performing.

    Of course, those years of performance (while looking "functional") came at quite the cost!

  3. A Spanish-language Dosier on Neurodivergent Literacies is available, funded by the Literacies branch of UNESCO-CERLALC in Latin America.

    This work is authored in part by Sara María Acevedo-Espinal, an Autistic Critical Disability Studies scholar from Colombia, and Assistant Professor at Miami University, Ohio.

    Este dosier, dirigido a líderes de políticas de lectura y sistemas bibliotecarios, docentes, bibliotecarios, mediadores e investigadores en el campo de la lectura y la educación en Iberoamérica, presenta los fundamentos teóricos que permitan la comprensión de la neurodiversidad y sus implicaciones en el desarrollo de las habilidades comunicativas. También, busca brindar orientaciones para la puesta en marcha de iniciativas educativas y de fomento de la lectura que posibiliten la participación plena de las personas neurodivergentes, con base en una perspectiva que promueva y dé visibilidad a la diversidad en el aprendizaje y en las trayectorias lectoras.
