About This Design

"Autistics want to be accepted" JRH quote t-shirt

"Autistics want to be accepted" JRH quote t-shirt

This t-shirt includes a heartfelt message that was painstakingly spelled out one letter at a time by a minimally-speaking young adult autistic male, J.R.H., after he learned at age 20 how to spell out on a letterboard and now type on a keyboard his deepest thoughts, hopes, and dreams that he's unable to speak verbally, so he has a LOT to say (for more information about this method, please read the book "Underestimated: An Autism Miracle" by J.B. and Jamie Handley.) The full message he spelled out in June, 2023 was: “We’ve been neglected and pushed aside like growing weeds, and we want to be accepted as intelligent members of society who have something to contribute, and be creatively very much accepted for our brilliant minds and quirky uncooperative bodies, because methinks we are the most loving and best humans on earth, so please give us a chance to show you, and I think you will be impressed by our very acutely aware minds that work like computers, but with compassion for others.” His message was somewhat shortened to put on a t-shirt to get out his heartfelt message to everyone. Plus, on the back of the shirt was one of the first things he spelled after his big breakthrough into open communication at age 20: "Please question more of the longheld beliefs about autism," and he wants others to know that non-speaking isn't the same as non-thinking.
