Off the Spectrum

Off the Spectrum

Madonna Kilpatrick is a comedian, anthropologist, and explorer. She is also autistic, and lives with non-verbal learning disorder, which can affect speech processing and motor skill coordination. These are not disabilities, however, but rather lenses through which Madonna observes the world, offering angles and viewpoints otherwise unseen by neurotypical audiences.
