@smart_motherhood: Posted @withregram • @muchmuchspectrum He didn’t speak till 11. Couldn’t read till 18. Today, Jason Arday is Cambridge’s youngest Black professor—and he’s using his platform to democratize education, uplift neurodivergent youth, and make elite spaces more inclusive. Diagnosed with autism and global developmental delay, Jason’s journey—from working night shifts to publishing academic books—isn’t just about beating the odds. It’s about community, representation, and creating access for those often left out. His story straddles race, class, and neurodivergence—and it’s proof that inclusion in academia isn’t just necessary, it’s possible. #GoodNews #PositiveNews #MuchMuchSpectrum #AutismAcceptance #Cambridge #DisabledAndProud #DisabilityInclusion #Viral #NonSpeaking #NonVerbal #ActuallyAutistic #InclusiveEducation #InspiringStories #AutisticAdults

I found Jason's story when I was told my son would likely never speak at age 4 and it brought me so much hope, now at age 7 he is starting to speak and turns out is a gestalt language processor, the importance of music and repetition cannot be overstated, Jason is and will always be an inspiration for all he has had to navigate and overcome ❤️

My son couldn’t speak until he was 6. And he was stuttering. Now he is top in mathematics national competition in SG, robotics competition too. and now that he is in high school he has straight A in an Australia school, without even studying. Delayed is not denied. ❤️

In Germany they would have put him in a special school and not letting him continue primary. I just know behind this man was a mother insisting on him to continue school and teach him things as well.

Thank you for sharing your story. It gives me hope. Living in Texas, in a rural area with very little support, it's hard. Your story shows me that it is not impossible
