Unpacking the term neuroqueer

In Episode 3 of QR Code, Michele Vescio(link is external) unpacks the term neuroqueer - the intersection of being queer and neurodivergent - with queer folk who are on the autism spectrum; including Alison Bennett(link is external), a non-binary person, artist, lecturer, and parent; Mellem Rose(link is external), a non-binary person, advocate for queer and neurodiverse rights, and founder of Spectrum Intersections(link is external); and William Elm(link is external), a Kabi Kabi man, multi-instrumentalist, and avant-composer. They discuss neuroqueer in the context of disability, ableism, visibility, and representation, and the complex navigation of access to healthcare resources, queer spaces, and societal expectations.
