One of the books we are loving is My Mummy is Autistic: A Picture Book and Guide about Recognising and Understanding Difference. The book is an imaginative representation of five-year-old thoughts about an autistic mother. The book in its simple and style tells us how the neurotypicals understand language, with colourful illustrations. It is an understanding of how the child’s mother’s brain understands things around her unlike anyone else he knows, including his.

Documentary

A collaborative effort by Ummeed Child Development Center and Much Much Media production, This 7.27-minute documentary called—Stop Bullying Disabled People: Eye-Opening Stories of Young People with Disabilities—is a great insight into how the neurodivergent or specially-abled often are not understood by people. People who might speak with a stutter, or have a medical condition that hampers execution of that “perfect” speech, often face ridicule due to a lack of understanding. Nehil Gala, who has been bullied all his life, shares his life story. He says that due to his intellectual disability, he never understood that he was being physically bullied with beatings and assaults for the first few years of his schooling. “I thought 
they were having fun with me and I just assumed it’s all fun and games.”

Social media

The Instagram handle nuerodivergent_indian is a refreshing one for people who want a peek into how the community is tired of being used as tokenism in mainstream Hindi cinema. The handle talks about how disabilities are used to make characters funnier and that this is a rampant practice. 
The stuttering Tushar Kapoor in Golmaal, the memory loss-impaired house help in Baazigar who would serve the wrong dish to the wrong person, Kader Khan in Mujse Shaadi Karogi who had a new impairment are just a 
few examples.
