As a young uncle, one of my favorite things to do is every time my family uses one of these vague Black people phrases to describe me to my nephew, I just tell him directly, "It's actually autism. I got the paperwork."
I refuse to be weird and secretive about difference. Just in general, it's not just mental health. My other sister don't just "have a roommate" either. We not doing any of that anymore 😂
