Episode 160- Why masking can be a burden and a privilege at the same time

Hello, my name is George Muniz Gund (he/they). I am a young Brazilian American Autistic and ADHD actor, disability justice advocate and board member at Autism Career Pathways (501c3).In this podcast, my co-host X Rakov and I talk about our lived experiences of being neurodivergent people growing up in a world built for neurotypicals. We also occasionally host guests to talk about their own personal lived experiences with neurodiversity, as every neurodistinct person is different and experiences neurodiversity in their own unique ways.*We do not speak for all neurodistinct people, we are just two neurodistinct people speaking about Autism and ADHD from our personal lived experiences.Check out my website <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.georgemunizgund.com/">https://www.georgemunizgund.com/</a>
