40: Advocate

Photo Description:
Panel 1: Snowy background with frosted evergreen trees, snow in a black sky with dark turquoise clouds, and a snowy green grass path. There is a bald eagle named Bacon asking a barn owl named Cupcake, “WHEN YOU “ADVOCATE”, ARE YOU DEMANDING EVERYONE AGREES WITH YOU?”

Panel 2: Cupcake replies, “It’s actually the opposite. It’s important to note that when you’ve met one Autistic, you’ve met one Autistic. Not all Autistics.

Panel 3: Cupcake continues, “While it’s important to voice what a majority of Autistics are saying, it’s also important to know we will still be quite different from each other.”

Panel 4: Cupcake finishes, “Advocating isn’t just talking. It’s listening. And, correcting yourself when wrong. To advocate is to grow everyone, not just yourself.” There is a white heart above Bacon.
