 BLACK AUTISM ACCEPTANCE DAY SUMMIT 2026 

🖤

This September, we’re making space for Black autistic voices, stories, brilliance, advocacy, and joy.
Join us for the inaugural Black Autism Acceptance Day Summit, a free two-day virtual gathering created to center the lived experiences and perspectives of Black autistic people.

Across two days, we’ll have powerful keynotes and conversations exploring identity, autism acceptance, racism and systemic barriers, disability justice, education, fatherhood, creativity, self-advocacy, representation, community, and the future of Black autistic voices.

I’m excited to be participating as both a keynote speaker and panelist on September 20th! I’ll be providing my insights on Black men’s experiences with autism, including fatherhood, vulnerability and mental health, community building, and advocacy and leadership tools & opportunities.

This is more than an event. It is a space for connection, visibility, truth, celebration, and change.
