Repeat as needed

Most readers of this blog will already be aware of the Ransom Notes campaign being conducted by the NYU Child Study Center. The Autistic Self Advocacy Network has taken the lead in drafting a petition to end this ill-considered and stigmatizing campaign. If you agree that portraying autism, Asperger syndrome, depression, bulimia, ADHD and OCD as child-stealing criminals is dehumanizing and potentially harmful to the persons associated with these labels, please take a minute to sign the online petition here. Thank you.

    Your posters are awesome! I would like to see one stuck over every one of the NYU center's ransom notes.

    Also, fyi, maybe someday I'll work up to more than a post a month, but anyhow: http://larana.wordpress.com/2007/12/13/nyu-child-study-center-ransom-notes-campaign/
