X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Slaying autism stereotypes with stand-up\,
  one joke at a time. Like many others on the autism spectrum\, 20-somethin
 g stand-up comic Michael McCreary has been told by more than a few well-me
 aning folks that he doesn't "look" autistic. But\, as he's quick to point 
 out in this memoir\, autism "looks" different for just about everyone with
  Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Diagnosed with ASD at age five\, McCreary
  got hit with the performance bug not much later. During a difficult time 
 in junior high\, he started journaling\, eventually turning his pain into 
 something empowering--and funny. He scored his first stand-up gig at age 1
 4\, and hasn't looked back. An #OwnVoices memoir breaks down what it's lik
 e to live with autism for readers on and off the spectrum.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>

 e Diversity Book Club is hosted monthly by AAUW Alexandria / Women Buildin
 g Cross-Cultural Friendships (WBCCF) and co-sponsored by the Alexandria Bu
 rke Branch Library.</p>\n<p>WBCCF's goal is to give women the opportunity 
 in a diverse and inclusive group to enrich their own lives through these r
 elationships and help amplify the voices of all women in our community. WB
 CCF&nbsp\;believes that the opportunity to come together to explore issues
  of race\, religion\, ethnicity\, etc. through well-chosen books will not 
 only further our individual learning but also create a setting in which we
  might ultimately decide on a community undertaking with wider implication
