Description: I've long wanted to share about how my Autism has helped me connect with non-human animals. I hope that sharing how I see the world differently may help others begin to think differently about animals. I fear that I cannot possibly do this topic justice, but I wanted to try—best I can. I share about my experiences growing up Autistic. How my difficulties with communication strengthened my empathy for and understanding of non-human animals' sentience. How I knew how it felt to never be truly understood. How it broke my heart thinking of what non-human animals were experiencing at the hands of humans; that no matter how desperately and clearly they communicated their terror and pain, they were ignored and discounted. _____________________ ✧ Subscribe ✧ • Newsletter: BiteSizeVegan.org/Subscribe_ytd • Telegram: BiteSizeVegan.org/Telegram • YouTube: bit.ly/BiteSizeSubscribe ✧ More about Autism on the article for this video: bitesizevegan.org/ethics/how-autism-connects-me-with-animals?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=yt_description&utm_campaign=post-link&utm_content=autism-connection _____________________ ❥ This video is dedicated to Ooby the bulldog & published on her birthday in her memory.
