‘Retard’ appears on social media every 5 seconds. We’re using our voice to stop the word, by sending videos from those affected directly to those using it.

The ‘R’ word is incredibly offensive, hurtful and demeaning. Not just to people with intellectual and physical disability, but to the friends, families and carers of these people. Whether you write it or say it, please don’t use the R word. #theRword

'If you ask a person with a disability, they’ll tell you that when they hear “R” word, even if it’s not aimed at them, it evokes feelings of distress.' 9news.com.au/national/2018/…
