STAND UP WEEK 2021- Choose Words That Heal, Not Hurt
This week we celebrate Stand Up Week.
We’ve come a long way. But we’ve got further to go.
Scribbled on bathroom stalls, whispered in corridors, shamelessly shouted “just for the laugh” – we’re still no strangers to hearing slurs. You know the ones. The ones you’d never hear on radio, or television, or see printed on paper. The ones people still throw about casually every single day.
Show your support for the LGBTI+ community this Stand Up Awareness Week and every week after.
Pledge to choose words that heal, not hurt.
It’s time to unlearn the language.
