Rethinking Autism
This is an excellent and eyecatching (though potentially not work safe due to her attire, which is a bra and skimpy panties barely covered by an open blouse) video collection by Leeann Tweeden. Her purpose is to teach facts about Autism and counteract the BS pseudoscience/woo-woo put forth by celebrities like Jenny McCarthy.
