An autistic man who learned how to read and write when he was 18 has become Cambridge University's youngest-ever Black professor. Professor Jason Arday who is now 37, spoke about his journey through education and becoming a prestigious professor.
Jason struggled with autism and learning delays so much so he was left unable to speak until he was 11-years-old.
He was told by therapists and career advisers that he would spend his adult life requiring lifelong support in an assisted living facility.
