Autism & Society Explained: Gaslighting (& the Importance of Allies & Community)

Autistic people are gaslighted throughout life, sometimes by people who don't even realise they're doing it. It has consequences for us individually and for our place in society. This week's video explains what gaslighting is, how it constantly enters our lives and why allies and the ever-growing autistic community are our best defence.
