(upbeat music) ALEC FRAZIER [00:00:00] Hello and welcome to the Autistic Reality Podcast. Here at Autistic Reality, we believe in three levels of identity.

We believe that we are all individuals with richly unique experiences, and finally, we believe in the importance of all other identities, whether they be gender, race, sexual orientation, ability, faith, and much, much more.
