Experiencing Interruptions?

Why I Stick To Myself

In "Why I Stick to Myself", young aspiring filmmaker Joshua J. Howard discusses how being on the autism spectrum has impacted his perception of himself and, consequently, his view on friendships. By interviewing other individuals, Joshua interrogates what makes a 'good' and 'bad' friend, sparking a conversation around what friendships represent in society and how neurodiversity intersects with such.
