Ep. 28 - Compromise, Communication, & Community

Autistic Tidbits & Tangents

Ep. 28 - Compromise, Communication, & Community - In this episode Bruce and Kara discuss the role of compromise in Advocacy, and how sometimes things need to be celebrated for the greater community even if you don't fully agree with all the methods. They also talk about the importance of communication and community for advocacy work, and the prime importance of self-advocacy. It has been a heavy advocacy week for Bruce, so it has been on his mind.
