Summary:

"When it comes to Autistic representation, BIPOC and white gender minorities have existed on the fringes of mainstream media for too long, rarely seeing representations of their unique experiences, hardships, and triumphs. Delving into topics like sex, living room dance parties, the natural world, eating disorders, religion and all-encompassing passions, 'Someone like me' brings together an eclectic mix of forms and voices that expand the cultural definition of the Autistic experience. This groundbreaking anthology invites Autistic people of all kinds to find company in these pages, and maybe even themselves too"--Page 4 of cover.
