What Is Neurodiversity In Your Own Words?

Many people have the tendency to mix up the 'Neurodiversity Movement' and the 'Neurodiversity Paradigm', making politics and science disrupt each other. PhD. Nick Walker writes: The idea that there is one “normal” or “healthy” type of brain or mind, or one “right” style of neurocognitive functioning, is a culturally constructed fiction, no more valid (and no more conducive to a healthy society or to the overall well-being of humanity) than the idea that there is one “normal” or “right” ethnicity, gender, or culture. The social dynamics that manifest in regard to neurodiversity are similar to the social dynamics that manifest in regard to other forms of human diversity (e.g., diversity of ethnicity, gender, or culture). These dynamics include the dynamics of social power inequalities, and also the dynamics by which diversity, when embraced, acts as a source of creative potential." close quote.

From my perspective, neurodiversity is a natural form of human diversity that holds all forms of neurological development. Neurodiversity is neutral and central as it doesn't classify brains as 'good' or 'bad', instead of labelling them it tries to understand the diversity between various forms of brain development.
