Often, the linguistic discrimination we discuss takes a bit of digging to uncover. Then there’s cases like this:

[APStylebook @APStylebook]

New on AP Stylebook Online today: Many deaf people who use sign language have a deeply ingrained sense of culture and community built around the experience of deafness and sign language, and use the uppercase form Deaf to signify that culture. (1/4)

Discussions about how most people have caught Omicron so they should develop milder cases of BA.2 ignore high risk ppl (again). What about all of us who did not? Who actively took taking total precautions, this whole time, bc we can't risk getting COVID. Period. 1/6

I was lucky enough to have a teacher who started a Lit. of the Holocaust class when I was in HS. We read most of these and more, and I cried a lot. But that's okay bc listening to the experiences of real ppl who experienced this keeps the reality of history at the forefront

Read Maus, read Night, read Twelve Years a Slave. Give them to your children and then discuss with them about what they read.
