Dear Readers,
Help me Spread the Word to End the Word™.
I invite you to be a fan of respect and join me in an on-going campaign to stop
the use of the word ‘retard(ed)’ or as we call it, the “R-word.” The “R-word”
is hate speech that is offensive, incorrect, derogatory, spreads hurt, and
ignores individuality. Over 225,000 people have pledged their support since the
campaign launched in 2009, and I hope you can join me by making your pledge to
end the use of the R-word.
Please visit www.r-word.org and take the pledge
and pass this email along to all your friends so together we can create
communities of acceptance and inclusion for people with intellectual and
developmental disabilities.
Much Love,
Lauren Kasteler
