Synopsis

Two masks. One body. Infinite exhaustion.

You're hiding your autism or ADHD while simultaneously code-switching your racial identity. You're performing neurotypicality AND acceptable Blackness, brownness, or indigeneity—every single day, just to stay safe.

This is double-masking. And it's breaking you.

Mainstream neurodiversity books weren't written for BIPOC experiences. They don't address being misdiagnosed five times more often than white peers. They don't discuss medical systems built on exploiting communities of color. They don't acknowledge that "just unmasking" can be dangerous when you're navigating racism and ableism simultaneously.

The Double-Mask fills that gap.

Discover:

✓ Why BIPOC individuals face systematic diagnostic barriers—and what to do when formal evaluation isn't safe or accessible

✓ How racial trauma and neurodivergence interact and compound

✓ Practical strategies for accommodations, advocacy, and survival in hostile systems

✓ The intersection of race, disability, gender, and queerness

✓ Culturally relevant healing beyond Western therapy

✓ Pathways from survival mode to collective liberation

This groundbreaking guide validates your experience while offering concrete tools for thriving. From understanding systemic ableism to building BIPOC-centered neurodivergent communities to fighting for disability justice—it's time to move beyond just surviving.

Includes self-assessment tools, resource directories, accommodation templates, and guidance for navigating life at the crossroads of race and neurodivergence.
