Setting the Record Straight on Neurodiversity, 2nd Edition

Last summer, I wrote a blog post that went into detail on the origins of the term and concept of neurodiversity. Since then, more info has been uncovered that dates said blog post so an updated version is in order.

Here’s the truth, put quite simply-Judy Singer did not coin neurodiversity and most certainly did not originate the idea or concept. This was never true, it just became accepted as truth as time went on. Singer hasn't been able to keep her story straight, and it's because of her ego. This is the kind of ego that the world of academia breeds. It gives people the need to claim ownership over words and concepts, even if it was developed within the community. It allows for individuals with institutional power to hold the cards against people without said power or privilege in progressive movements. This isn’t to say everyone who participates in academia is guilty of this, just that academia creates these people by its very design.

Neurological diversity was used as early as October of 1996 on Martijn Dekker’s InLv (Independent Living on the Autism Spectrum) email list. It was a private list, only accessible to those who participated in it. With permission, he published an email from Tony Langdon where he not only name drops neurological diversity but describes it in the exact way it’s usually defined. 

“I'm becoming more sure that what allows the human

race to progress socially and technologically is the neurological

diversity of people.  I.e., the atypical among a society provide the

different perspectives needed to generate new ideas and advances,

whether they be technological, cultural, artistic or otherwise.”

It was also used in an email from Phil Schwarz dated 1997, an entire year before Singer’s thesis, on a public email list. 

“The more we widen societal horizons regarding _neurological_ diversity,

alongside diversity of race, ethnicity, religion, culture, etc., the

easier it will be for folks on the spectrum to integrate into, and

contribute to, the society at large, to whatever degree their skills

and talents render them capable. The more there will be a place and

a role of value in the society at large.”

There are more emails from even further back on this email list that don’t outright namedrop neurodiversity, but do use the same basic phrasing short of exact wording such as this one from Stephen Drake. Even then, the concept of neurodiversity isn’t very original as it is very derivative of the pre-existing Disability Rights Movement, which was pushing for the same thing. The neurodiversity movement has had a focus on brain-based disabilities since the mainstream Disability Rights Movement often focuses more on physical disabilities.

Harvey Blume (may his memory be a blessing) published two articles on neurodiversity in the late 90s. One that uses “neurological pluralism”, which is basically a synonym, and then another that does use neurodiversity. This was published before Singer’s thesis, though it was something he wrote based on his discussions with her. The older article looks to have been published independently of said discussions, though. Journalists like Blume play a significant role in the popularization of terms, and he published for Atlantic and NYT, two high profile publications. Therefore, it suffices to say he did a lot to help bring the term and idea into the public eye. 

There were some claims in the 2000s that Larry Arnold was the one to coin neurodiversity, though Larry himself disputed this. It’s likely that because he mentioned neurodiversity in his old website that there was a simple misattribution given to him. 

What really put neurodiversity on the map, at least within autistic spaces, was the aforementioned article that Jane Meyerding wrote. Personal accounts relay that this article was a huge deal and sparked many conversations among autistics and cousins about their own lived experiences. Jane does not take credit for the term, but it is worth noting that this was widely shared and had the term in it. Judy’s thesis didn’t get much attention until it was mentioned in another one of her writings published in Disability Discourse, but written before that called "Why Can't You Be Normal for Once in Your Life?". Disability Discourse is cited pretty heavily and mentions the 1998 thesis. A lot of people also seem to get the idea that Judy coined neurodiversity from Steve Silberman’s NeuroTribes, a NYT Best-seller published in 2015. Re-reading the chapter that talks about this, “In Autistic Space”, Silberman talks about the neurodiversity movement’s origins on the whole, including the stuff from ANI and even mentions Jane’s essay. It does mention Judy coined neurodiversity, though Silberman may not have had the intel that its usage predates hers. Many other people didn’t either so Steve isn’t necessarily at fault for this. Steve gave a mostly accurate depiction of neurdoversity’s origins otherwise, so it may just be that people took a snippet from that and repeated it until it became accepted as the definitive truth. 

Neurodiversity is many things. One thing it is not is something that belongs to a single person. Like with any idea, it’s a constant work in progress. Many different people have defined it in different ways and there really wasn’t a single person who coined the term or conceived the idea. It was something collectively devised by a tight-knit community in the late 80s and early 90s. Two or more people are indeed capable of devising the same or similar words to describe the same phenomena independent of one another. The sheer chance that we all happen to live on the same planet in a universe full of them, a planet that happens to be able to support living beings at that, is small enough that the possibility of many separate people coming to the same single conclusion is more likely than not. The most accurate thing to say about neurodiversity’s origins is that it emerged as a concept and a term in the 1990s within communities of autistics and cousins on the internet whose work was influenced by the Disability Rights Movement.

Trump verkündete mehrfach vor seiner Wahl zum 47. Präsidenten der USA: Der Krieg Ukraine - Russland wird in 24 Stunden beendet. Und nun? Trumps "gutes Verhältnis" zu Putin und Russland Trump auf Truth zwei Tage nach seinem Amtsantritt über Russland: "Ich bin nicht darauf aus, Russland zu schaden. Ich liebe das russische Volk und hatte immer ein sehr gutes Verhältnis zu Präsident Putin - und das trotz der Russland, Russland, Russland HOAX der radikalen Linken. Wir dürfen nie vergessen, dass Russland uns geholfen hat, den Zweiten Weltkrieg zu gewinnen und dabei fast 60.000.000 Menschenleben verloren hat. Nach alledem werde ich Russland, dessen Wirtschaft zusammenbricht, und Präsident Putin einen großen Gefallen tun. Beruhigen Sie sich jetzt und STOPPEN Sie diesen lächerlichen Krieg! ER WIRD NUR NOCH SCHLIMMER WERDEN. Wenn wir uns nicht bald einigen, habe ich keine andere Wahl, als hohe Steuern, Zölle und Sanktionen auf alles zu verhängen, was von Russland an die Vereinigten Staaten und verschiedene andere beteiligte Länder verkauft wird. Bringen wir diesen Krieg, der nie begonnen hätte, wenn ich Präsident wäre, hinter uns! Wir können es auf die einfache oder auf die harte Tour machen - und die einfache ist immer besser. Es ist an der Zeit, ein „MAKE A DEAL“ zu machen. ES SOLLTEN KEINE WEITEREN LEBEN VERLOREN GEHEN!!!" Angesichts dieser Aussagen erinnerte Bernhard auf seinem Blog "Moon of Alabama" an Putins Interview mit Le Figaro: "Im Mai 2017 gab der russische Präsident Wladimir Putin ein Interview mit Le Figaro. Er erläuterte seine Erfahrungen mit den politischen Präferenzen der US-Präsidenten:   Ich habe bereits mit drei US-Präsidenten gesprochen. Sie kommen und gehen, aber die Politik bleibt immer die gleiche. Wissen Sie, warum? Wegen der mächtigen Bürokratie. Wenn eine Person gewählt wird, hat sie vielleicht ein paar Ideen. Dann kommen Leute mit Aktenkoffern, gut gekleidet, in dunklen Anzügen, genau wie ich, bis auf die rote Krawatte, denn sie tragen schwarze oder dunkelblaue. Diese Leute fangen an zu erklären, wie die Dinge gemacht werden. Und sofort ändert sich alles. Das ist bei jeder Verwaltung so.   Bei der zweiten Präsidentschaft von Donald Trump hat es nur zwei Tage gedauert, bis das passiert ist. Anstatt sich um bessere Beziehungen zu Russland zu bemühen, um den Krieg in der Ukraine zu beenden, wie er es im Wahlkampf versprochen hatte, hat Trump einen öffentlichen „Dialog“ mit Russland begonnen, der diese beiden Ziele unmöglich zu machen scheint." Larry C. Johnson veröffentlichte am 23. 01. 2025 nachfolgenden Blogbeitrag, in dem er die Einschätzung der russischen Opfer und der russischen Wirtschaft durch Präsident Trump und sein Team seit 2022 kritisierte. Beginn der Übersetzung (Abbildung, Hervorhebungen und Links wie im Original): Russische Opfer und die russische Wirtschaft – Ein Memo für Präsident Donald Trump Von Larry C. Johnson am 23. Januar 2025 Herr Präsident, ich bin der Meinung, dass die CIA Ihnen ungenaue und falsche Informationen über die Opferzahlen und die wirtschaftliche Lage Russlands liefert. Wenn Sie Ihr Ziel erreichen wollen, nämlich Verhandlungen mit Präsident Wladimir Putin aufzunehmen, um den Krieg in der Ukraine zu beenden, müssen Sie über die besten verfügbaren Informationen verfügen. Man hat Ihnen mitgeteilt, dass Russland verheerende Verluste erlitten hat – bis zu 800.000 Menschen sind ums Leben gekommen – und dass die russische Wirtschaft schwach und instabil ist. Daten aus offenen Quellen zeichnen ein diametral entgegengesetztes Bild. Eine der besten offenen Quellen für Informationen über russische Opfer ist Mediazona : Mediazona (russisch : Медиазона) ist ein unabhängiges russisches Medienunternehmen, das sich auf die antiputinistische Opposition konzentriert und von Maria Aljochina und Nadeschda Tolokonnikowa gegründet wurde, die auch Mitbegründerinnen der Protestgruppe und Band Pussy Riot sind. Chefredakteur des Unternehmens ist der russische Politikjournalist Sergej Smirnow. Mediazona ist eine unabhängige Organisation, die ideologisch gegen Wladimir Putin eingestellt ist. Sie ist das Gegenteil eines russischen Propagandasenders. Mediazona verwendet eine vielschichtige Methodik, um die russischen Opfer im Ukraine-Krieg zu verfolgen. Dazu gehören: - Open-Source-Nachrichtenbeschaffung: Sie überwachen öffentlich zugängliche Informationen von Nachrichtenagenturen, Social-Media-Plattformen, offiziellen Militärberichten und lokalen Bürgergruppen. - Zusammenarbeit: Mediazona arbeitet eng mit dem russischen Dienst der BBC zusammen, um Opfermeldungen zu verfolgen und zu überprüfen. - Umfassende Datenbank: Sie führen eine regelmäßig aktualisierte Verlustliste, die derzeit über 44.600 Namen der im Kampf gefallenen russischen Soldaten enthält. - Analyse des Nachlassregisters: Mediazona kombiniert seine Opferliste mit Daten aus der Datenbank des Nachlassregisters, um die tatsächliche Sterberate unter russischen Männern zu schätzen. - Statistische Modellierung: Sie verwenden eine Methode, die die gesamte erhöhte männliche Sterblichkeit bis zum Alter von 50 Jahren berücksichtigt und dabei Faktoren wie die soziale Zusammensetzung, Verzögerungen bei Notarkonsultationen und Verzögerungen bei der Sterbefallregistrierung in Betracht zieht. - Querverweise: Das Team überprüft Informationen durch Gegenprüfung mehrerer Quellen und Datenbanken. - Freiwilligennetzwerk: Ein Team von Freiwilligen hilft bei der Datenerfassung und -überprüfung. - Kontinuierliche Aktualisierung: Die Datenbank wird regelmäßig aktualisiert, um die aktuellsten verfügbaren Informationen widerzuspiegeln. Den neuesten Daten von Mediazona zufolge sind seit Februar 2022 88.726 russische Soldaten im Kampfeinsatz gestorben. Mediazona schätzt anhand von Daten aus dem Nachlassregister, dass die Zahl sogar 120.000 betragen könnte. Das ist weit entfernt von den Zahlen, die der ukrainische Geheimdienst angibt und die den Schätzungen der CIA zugrunde liegen. Es ist wichtig, dass Sie verstehen, dass Russland diesen Krieg als lebenswichtig für seine weitere Existenz ansieht. Russland kämpft nicht für die Wiederherstellung des Sowjetimperiums. Es betrachtet die Ukraine als Stellvertreter des Westens, der Russland mit Waffen und Geheimdienstinformationen aus den USA und der NATO angreift, mit dem ultimativen Ziel, die derzeitige Regierung zu stürzen. Dementsprechend ist das einzig zufriedenstellende Ergebnis für Russland, diese Bedrohung zu beenden. Präsident Putin ist bereit, eine Verhandlungslösung zu akzeptieren, vorausgesetzt, dass der Ukraine die Möglichkeit genommen wird, künftige Angriffe auf Russland zu starten, und dass die NATO jegliche Überlegungen aufgibt, die Ukraine zu einem NATO-Mitglied zu machen. Den jüngsten Prognosen des IWF zufolge wird die russische Wirtschaft im Jahr 2025 voraussichtlich um 1,4 % wachsen, was einem leichten Anstieg gegenüber der vorherigen Prognose von 1,3 % entspricht. Dies stellt eine Verlangsamung gegenüber dem erwarteten Wachstum von 3,8 % im Jahr 2024 dar. Der IWF führt diese Verlangsamung auf mehrere Faktoren zurück: - Übergang von einer „Kriegswirtschaft“: Die russische Wirtschaft läuft auf Hochtouren, angeheizt durch erhebliche öffentliche Ausgaben für die Kriegsanstrengungen. - Hohe Inflation: Der IWF meldet für Russland eine Inflation von 8,3 % im Jahr 2024, wobei die sequenzielle Inflation mit über 9 % sogar noch höher liegt. - Straffung der Geldpolitik: Als Reaktion auf die hohe Inflation hat die russische Zentralbank den Leitzins auf 21 Prozent angehoben, was die Wirtschaftstätigkeit voraussichtlich dämpfen wird. Die Prognose des IWF für Russland im Jahr 2025 liegt unter der Basisprognose des russischen Wirtschaftsministeriums von 2,5 Prozent Wachstum. Sie liegt jedoch innerhalb der aktuellen Prognosespanne der russischen Zentralbank von 0,5 bis 1,5 Prozent. Bemerkenswert ist, dass einige russische Politiker, darunter Wirtschaftsminister Maxim Reshetnikov, die Prognosen des IWF als zu pessimistisch kritisierten und argumentierten, dass darin die Maßnahmen der russischen Behörden zur Stützung der Wirtschaft nicht berücksichtigt würden. Und hier liegt der entscheidende Punkt: Trotz der prognostizierten Abschwächung lässt die Prognose des IWF darauf schließen, dass sich Russlands Wirtschaft angesichts der westlichen Sanktionen weiterhin als widerstandsfähig erweist. Dies ist größtenteils auf Faktoren zurückzuführen wie robuste Öl- und Rohstoffexporte in Länder wie Indien und China sowie die Expansion des militärisch-industriellen Komplexes des Landes. Die russische Regierung ist nach wie vor optimistisch hinsichtlich ihrer Wirtschaft. Vertreter des Landes heben starke Wachstumszahlen und Widerstandsfähigkeit gegenüber westlichen Sanktionen hervor. Die russische Regierung verweist auf mehrere Schlüsselindikatoren, die diese optimistische Einschätzung untermauern: - BIP-Wachstum: Die Wirtschaft wuchs im Jahr 2023 um 3,6 % und dürfte im Jahr 2024 um etwa 4 % wachsen. Damit ist Russland eine der am schnellsten wachsenden großen Volkswirtschaften 1 3. - Niedrige Arbeitslosigkeit: Die Arbeitslosenquote sank im Jahr 2024 auf 2,6 %, ein historisch niedriges Niveau 1 4. - Steigender globaler Wirtschaftsstatus: Nach Angaben der Weltbank hat Russland Deutschland und Japan überholt und ist gemessen an der Kaufkraftparität die viertgrößte Volkswirtschaft der Welt. - Erhöhte Investitionen: Die Anlageinvestitionen stiegen im Jahr 2023 um 9,8 % und im ersten Quartal 2024 um 14,5 % 1. - Handelsüberschuss: Russland erzielte im Jahr 2023 einen Überschuss von 50,2 Milliarden US-Dollar und im ersten Halbjahr 2024 von 40,6 Milliarden US-Dollar 1. Präsident Wladimir Putin nutzt diese Wirtschaftsindikatoren, um die Wirkungslosigkeit der westlichen Sanktionen zu argumentieren und seinen Partnern in Asien und Afrika das russische Wirtschaftsmodell vorzustellen. Wenn man Russlands Perspektive auf den Krieg im Hinblick auf Opferzahlen und Wirtschaft betrachtet, steht Wladimir Putin nicht unter Druck, eine Verhandlungslösung zu erreichen, die Russlands strategische Bedenken, dass es keiner militärischen Bedrohung durch die NATO mehr ausgesetzt sein wird, außer Acht lässt. Wenn Sie dies nicht verstehen und Ihre Strategie nicht anpassen, um ein Abkommen zu erzielen, werden Ihre Bemühungen, ein Ende des Krieges in der Ukraine auszuhandeln, keinen Erfolg haben.

Cindy Hinds in The Brood (David Cronenberg, 1979)

Cast: Oliver Reed, Samantha Eggar, Art Hindle, Henry Beckman, Nuala Fitzgerald, Cindy Hinds, Susan Hogan, Gary McKeehan, Michael Magee, Robert A. Silverman, Joseph Shaw, Larry Solway, Reiner Schwarz. Screenplay: David Cronenberg. Cinematography: Mark Irwin. Art direction: Carol Spier. Film editing: Alan Collins. Music: Howard Shore. 

Creepy children have become a staple of horror movies ever since Patty McCormack terrorized everyone as Rhoda Penmark in The Bad Seed (Mervyn LeRoy, 1956). The key here is the depiction of evil lurking behind a façade of innocence. Actually, the creepy child in The Brood is not Candice Carveth (Cindy Hinds), an otherwise ordinary 5-year-old, except as a vehicle for bringing out the creepy childlike creatures that are the movie's menace. It's a good, bloody, somewhat queasy film that plays on all sorts of phobias, including our suspicions about psychiatrists, and our tolerance for bodily functions. It proved too much for some of its early critics, including Roger Ebert, who dismissed it as an exploitation film, "reprehensible trash," and a bore. It may be the first, and perhaps the second -- given that one person's trash is another person's genre classic -- but it's certainly not the last. David Cronenberg is an insidious filmmaker, who constantly plays on our nerves without resorting to cheap jump scares. He makes you back off at times: In the scene that made most people feel at least faintly nauseated, I found myself saying, "It's only corn syrup and food coloring." We may also debate whether the film is fair to the psychiatric profession and even if there's a touch of antifeminism, but that means he's left you with something to think about. To dismiss The Brood as exploitative is to overlook the satire with which it's laced.

Setting the Record Straight on Neurodiversity

Edit 1/11/24-This version is now outdated. See the 2nd edition here.

Edit 7/13/23-Martijn Dekker has now supplied direct evidence of people using "neurological diversity", which neurodiversity is shortened to, as early as 1996. So now we know for sure Singer did not coin the term, nor did the idea ever belong to a single person.

There has been much upheaval lately over the actions of Judy Singer, who has long been credited as the person to coin the term neurodiversity. Much of the ensuing discourse comes from a place of shock. Many are surprised to see the sudden heel turn she’s made to the reactionary side of autism politics. As someone who practically knows the Neurodiversity Movement’s history inside and out, I am not surprised by this. It kind of feels like it was a matter of time before people started to learn about Judy’s true nature, quite frankly. There’s a lot I want to discuss that is independent of recent happenings. I feel that I really don’t need to say much about that, as it’s already been said by many others. The story behind her apology on Twitter, which then led to a post on her LinkedIn that was a rescinding of said apology, is quite peculiar, and the true story behind that is unclear. So anyway, let’s really look at the origins of the term neurodiversity, how it’s actually been defined over the years, and who the actual originators of it are.

First off, even when looking at Judy’s work in the late 90s, it’s clear that she really was never the sole proprietor of neurodiversity, or even close to it. Harvey Blume, a journalist for The Atlantic, also helped popularize the term the same year Judy published her thesis. A journalist is more likely to play a role in popularizing a term than someone writing a paper for a Masters degree. Now there’s evidence to suggest that they both came up with the word together around 1997 when discussing their involvement with autistic-led email listservs, namely ANI-L and InLv. Multiple people who were actually there back in those days have claimed that neurodiversity was actually used informally on email lists like those before Singer or Blume published it in print. If you want to be hyper specific, Blume actually published it in print first. Without having access to the archives of ANI-L or InLv, it's hard to find direct evidence to confirm or deny these claims. Using the email lists that have been made available for Autistic Archive, there is claim on alt.support.autism, a list which dates back to 1998, that Singer did not coin neurodiversity, but it was rather Larry Arnold. However, there is an email from Larry on AutAdvo, a Yahoo Groups list, that says he didn’t but rather Blume did.

A book on WebArchive from 2002 called Contexts: understanding people in their social worlds credits Singer for originating the term. So it’s long been attributed to her as her word, even back when it was a newer term. It feels like a case of chicken-or-the-egg as to whether Singer or Blume came up with it first, though it’s fair to say they both played a role in bringing the word into mainstream. That’s not the same as actually coining it, but there is still some truth to their role in the term’s history. Singer specifically was more so a person who rode the fledgling movement and described it in her writing than someone who actually did the on-the-ground work people like Jim Sinclair, Phil Schwarz, Mel Baggs, and Kassiane Asasumasu among others did to really build momentum for it. If anything, those people are the real originators of neurodiversity-not just as a term or concept, but as an actual movement with core principles. Core principles Singer either perpetually has failed to understand or misappropriate. 

Even when looking back at her thesis from 1998, her misconceptions are clear from the start. She describes neurodiversity as a concept and a movement that only applies to “high functioning autistics' ' or people with Asperger’s syndrome. This isn’t true now, and it wasn’t true then. Severe/profound autism proponents are using this as a way to “prove” the neurodiversity movement doesn’t care about the autistic people they care about. Jim talks about this in xyr 2005 article “History of ANI ''. When Jim, Xenia, and Donna were first creating ANI, they had discussions about who they would open membership to. The article is really long, but this can be found under “Defining membership: Who are ‘we’?”. They decided to open membership not only to autistic people who could reliably speak to be understood and were considered “high functioning”, but also to autistic people who were deemed lower functioning, as well as “cousins” as Xenia described them. This actually was part of the conflict ANI had with More Abled Autistic People, a parent-run group that they collaborated with when planning MAAP’s 1995 conference. MAAP would not allow autistic people they deemed low functioning into the conference. ANI did not like this and tried to push back against that rule. At least one autistic person who used an AAC device to communicate ended up attending regardless. One of the people involved in the early days of ANI was Cal Montgomery, who mainly used AAC to communicate. He still often does and can speak intermittently, but he also has several co-occuring disabilities and requires constant care. A lot of his work was very important in framing the movement in its early days, with essays published in self-advocacy magazines like A Ragged Edge titled “Critic of the Dawn ''. Mel Baggs is one of the key figures of the neurodiversity movement’s history and sie also required round the clock care. Sie seems to be the one to have coined the term aspie supremacy. There is certainly a point to be made about the contributions of autistic people who are non-speaking or unreliably speaking as well as autistic people with intellectual disabilities not being properly recognized. However, saying that is not the same thing as saying the neurodiversity movement or the concept of neurodiversity does not include them. The truth of the matter is that Judy Singer is a single person, as are all of the other people I’ve mentioned here. To treat her, or for her to act as the sole entity who gets to define neurodiversity, is naive at best.

Judy’s problems extend beyond her definition of neurodiversity. She did some stuff in the 2000s that really showed her hand. She lead an online forum for autistic parents called ASpar (Asperger's Syndrome Parenting). She also ended up writing a blog about them and described them from the pov of their offsprings, supporting the dubious Cassandra Syndrome label. It was basically the inverse of the typical stuff you would hear parents of autistic people say about their kids. She also speculated about how certain historical figures might have been autistic-namely Hitler. You can read more on her archived website here

So where do we go from here? Some have suggested that the word neurodiversity is ruined now that Singer has shown her true colors. I personally don’t see it that way. For one, Singer was already like this, it just wasn’t apparent to many people. According to a newly published article on The Guardian, Judy’s thesis wasn’t given much attention until she was found by Steve Silberman, author of NeuroTribes, and then she was featured in the book, which became a New York Times Best-Seller. It seems like Judy’s importance to the Neurodiversity Movement has over time been exaggerated to the point where she has even been dubbed “the mother of neurodiversity” by some. It is common for information to be morphed and the truth exaggerated, especially on the internet. There are many other misconceptions about the neurodiversity movement of all sizes, and Autistic Archive has been an attempt at providing as accurate and nuanced an image as possible. The movement’s history is complicated, and none of its originators are saints or are above criticism. So I don’t see this so much as a case of “let’s call this movement something else” and most certainly not proof that the movement needs to be scrapped and started over from scratch. History is complicated. It is entirely possible to appreciate the contributions those in the past have made to something and honor them when credit is due, while still recognizing their imperfections and the current shortcomings that persist to this day. It is also important to have an accurate account of said history. Two things can indeed be true.
