When you think of autism, a Black face likely doesn’t come to mind. A grown Black woman’s face even less so. The image most often associated with autism is a white boy, white boys are the unofficial “face” of autism. But Black women? We are often invisible within the autism community. Many don’t know we exist, and others choose to overlook us.
