Episode Two: An Identity I Refused To Be Ashamed Of

A Multitude Of Drops: Philosophies Of Autistic Identity 18 Oct 2026

Listen · 12 MIN

Nobody arrives at an Autistic identity alone. David Gray-Hammond describes coming to his own identity through the online Autistic community and the neurodiversity movement, and argues that identity is constituted in relationship rather than discovered in isolation. Along the way: the double empathy problem, the inheritance of Mad Pride and Disability Pride, and why pride is a refusal of shame rather than a claim of superiority.
