Abstract
Welcome to the second issue of Decolonizing Parenting zine. It's been about two years since we released our first issue. This issue we focus on queer autistic Black, Indigenous, parents of color raising autistic children. We are single mamas/parents, unschoolers/deschoolers, artists, zine makers, poets and we live on the margins of the margins. We are more than grateful to feature and share space with Jo, Viveka and Sahand!
ABOUT THE COVER
Sahand Azaad illustrated the cover and said this about it: "it's referencing how I feel being an outcast among my own community, how being autistic makes me feel look down on as a parent...(djinn imagery) it appears in our culture now as respectability politics. Even if we're all the same color certain things about me are too "tribal" and "uncivilized" and it's tied up in my neuro-queerness because I express my authentic self instead of denying it."
