Dear friends, I’ve just published a new formal statement. Amazon continues to sell and promote books that push dangerous “autism cures”; from bleach solutions to chelation therapies. These are not harmless alternative treatments. They are abusive practices that cause real physical and psychological harm to Autistic people, while reinforcing the idea that our existence is something to be eradicated. I cannot remain silent. In this piece, I lay out:
This is not just about Amazon. It’s about the wider ecosystem that profits from ableism and pseudoscience, and the urgent need for neurodivergent-competent approaches that honour our lives. I invite you to read the full statement here: https://dghndconsultancy.substack.com/p/formal-statement-against-amazons Please share it widely, together we can challenge harmful narratives and push for accountability.
