Instead, they often exist on the margins-on the periphery of autism research. In fact, Black autistic adults are largely absent from the literature. Most participants in autism research are majority-white autistic individuals and families. In this conceptual article, we use intersectionality and Dis/ability Studies and Critical Race Theory theories to contextualize Black autistic adults' experiences. Second, we argue that systemic disparities and methodological concerns are two contributors to the scholarly neglect of Black autistic adults in autism research. Third, we provide guidelines to support researchers in moving from neglect to inclusive research with Black autistic adults.}, journal={AUTISM IN ADULTHOOD}, author={Malone, Kayla M. and Pearson, Jamie N. and Palazzo, Kayla N. and Manns, Lonnie D. and Rivera, Amelia Q. and Mason Martin, DeVoshia L.}, year={2022}, month={Sep} }
