The Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN), in conjunction with
Christschool, has produced a video about the use of the “r” word.
Please distribute the video immediately to organizations and
individuals you think
will be interested.

With the opening of Tropic Thunder this week, the R Word video
counteracts the idea that it’s OK for a majority group to use harmful
language that can have serious effects on the population
being “joked” about.
Best regards,
