Elon on SNL

Elon Musk on SNL – Representation

This weekend on Saturday Night Live, Elon Musk revealed that he has been diagnosed with the form of autism spectrum disorder previously called Asperger Syndrome. We read a lot about how important it is for all people to see themselves in the media and in society, and Musk’s decision to share his diagnosis with the world on television is one example of neurodiverse representation.  He also was pretty funny on the comedy show, letting other people know that their assumptions about people they may consider “socially awkward” might be pretty off!

Musk is a polarizing figure on the best of days, but seeing someone talk about their diagnosis in such a public forum is good for representation of neurodiversity in general! CEO, entrepreneur, billionaire, and SNL host is quite a pedigree!
