What’s the difference between explicit and implicit autistic characters?


Here’s Corben Havener discussing explicit and implicit (or “coded”) autistic characters as two different ways of portraying neurodiversity in media. 


The following clip is from a roundtable discussion with our Global Autism Community, where Autistic self-advocates shared their opinions on how autism is represented in the media.


Welcome to Autism Tips & Tools, where we highlight the best practical guidance from previous episodes of Autism Knows No Borders. Whether you’re a self-advocate, a family member, or a service provider, there’s something here for you!


This conversation with our Global Autism Community was originally released on April 14, 2022.
