Elwyn Institute is a school for disabled people near where I live. I remember being on public transportation and hearing a man talking about the "freaks from Elwyn" which made me angry because I had friends from Elwyn. I also remember riding the bus with a family who were sitting in the disabled seats with an older member who kept joking about them being the R word They were black. I wonder how they would like it if I called them the N word
I wonder where I learned these words. I am sorry that I used the word weirdo. There are many words that are offensive that are used often by people who don’t deserve to use those words.
THat we have been trained to say there is a stigma to mental illnesses illustrates just how easily prejudices can be trained into us.
