The Assembly, a new ABC documentary series, introduces us to a diverse group of autistic people who are interested in pursuing journalism careers.
The first episode strikes a nice balance between introducing the Macquarie University students, showing their classroom experience and an interview with a celebrity – in this episode, New Zealand actor Sam Neill. Other interview subjects in the series include singer Delta Goodrem, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and footballer Adam Goodes. The students are mentored by journalist Leigh Sales.
