“Because of dissent a culture was born.”

by Tania Melnyczuk | 8 Mar 2019 | Diary

Today I’m sharing quotes from Emma Zurcher-Long, a (mostly) non-speaking autistic teenager. They’re from 2014, when Emma was making rapid strides in communication. They represent insights on life, the universe and everything else.
