Disability Pride Month is observed each July to celebrate the strength, diversity, and achievements of people with disabilities. It also recognizes the history of the disability rights movement, including the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in July 1990. This month is a time to challenge stigma, promote inclusion and accessibility, and affirm that disability is a natural part of the human experience.

The R-word didn't stop being used because something cooler replaced it. It faded because people fought to end it. And now it's creeping back, dressed up as a punchline, an insult, or a throwaway comment, including in shows like Euphoria and stand-up specials. It was never any of those things. And people with disabilities have dealt with this word their entire lives.

In our blog, people share exactly what this word has meant in their lives and the moments they heard it, who said it, and what it cost them. Their stories are honest, painful, and important. And they are exactly why this conversation still matters.

Read their words. Sit with their experiences. And then make two choices: never use it again and say something when others do.
