Autistic woman wrongly locked up in mental health hospital for 45 years β€œKasibba”, who is non-verbal and had no family to speak for her, was one of hundreds wrongly detained.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... is one link to Kasibba's story. It's daunting to read, and what a total mess, eh? So many people describing Kasibba in dreadful and frankly racist ways, before people rethought autism, learned new perspectives, and made a huge difference/

AT-Autism Conference 2025 The Art of the Possible - AT-Autism

#AutismArtOfThePossible
Andrew Reece & Lucy Dunstan, next. Bios can be found at www.atautism.org/at-autism-co...

Andrew begins by talking about Kasibba, and the journey to get her out of hospital. Huge fees, stress & effort against barriers, but Camden managed it. How?../

Ruth Moyse talks about her past research on autistic children and schools. Every child who wasn't able to attend school said they wished they could attend. But they can't do it. It's impossible for them.

It's not school 'refusal'. They can't access the school.

The research finding no increased 'risk' of autism if acetaminophen taken during pregnancy is available, eg this study. Not suppressed.

The narrative that autism is something to be feared and prevented is offensive and uneducated scaremongering.
