Description

How does lack of knowledge of autism and neurodiversity ruin the life of a disabled Canadian now in his late 30s?Follow an alumni as he gives an account of his fellow neurodiverse classmate living through three tough years of abuse and misunderstanding at Glenlawn Collegiate. Gain an understanding of the autism spectrum and neurodiversity as you watch a Winnipeg boy grasp onto hope that he will one day be accepted and respected for who he is.After signing up for drama, dance, and art, Dennis Friesen decided to mind his business after embarrasing himself in every creative act he attempted. But he had no way of coping with the daily bullying he recieved. He tried everything from religion to counselling and finally found a gang of hip-hop enthusiasts to help him build a reputation.According to Billy Jenkins, the signs to Friesen's autism were very apparent. But back then, there was very little knowledge of the autism spectrum, neurodiversity, or Asperger's Syndrome. Join Jenkins as he recounts the events that lead to a shocking dissappearance that happened to Friesen. Learn about how Friesen could have saved years of pain, PTSD, loss, aimlessness, and depression. Inside Glenlawn tells an anonymous true story of tenacity in a world where the abnormal will never fit in a normal society. Join Jenkins as he educates his readers while sharing the need for the existance of autism and neurodivere acceptance in an ableist world.
