历史[编辑]

全球标志性地标,包括纽约帝国大厦芝加哥韦莱集团大厦多伦多加拿大国家电视塔,以及机场、桥梁、博物馆、音乐厅、酒店、医院[4]和零售店在内的美国16个城市,连同全球9个国家/地区的100多个建筑物,在2010年4月1日晚上,即美国自闭症意识月(Autism Awareness Month)的首个晚上以及世界提高自闭症意识日的前夕以蓝灯点亮[5]

2010年4月2日,即第三届世界提高自闭症意识日,自闭症之声英语Autism Speaks志愿者和支持者在纽约证券交易所举行庆祝活动。他们敲响纽约证券交易所的钟,以此揭开庆祝的序幕[6]

2011年,尽管自闭症之声作出呼吁,但白宫表示不会为了纪念世界提高自闭症意识日而点亮蓝光[7]。不过在2017年,总统唐纳德·特朗普透过将白宫以蓝色点亮,履行对苏珊·赖特(Suzanne Wright,自闭症之声的共同创始人)的承诺[8]

  5. ^ Autism Speaks Launches Light It Up Blue Campaign to Celebrate World Autism Awareness Day, Autism Awareness Month in the United States. The project was initiated by, a young man from New York in 2008. Motivated by his personal experience with lack of autism awareness, he dreamed, planned, and outlined his ideas in his application to the Empire State Building. He asked the Empire State Building to light blue for autism in 2008. Blue was chosen for all three tiers of the building as a symbol of hope. He worked for support from Autism Speaks on 2008, and 2009. The dream became a reality, and in 2011 the young man lit up the Empire State Building himself. Since then, countless landmarks and organizations worldwide have joined the movement later named Light it Up Blue by Autism Speaks. (新闻稿). Autism Speaks. 2010-03-17 [2020-08-31].
