ValerieAndBooks Ugh, I don‘t blame you! Being Deaf myself, I totally understand that hashtag. 5y
Prairiegirl_reading I‘m having a hard time with Maya Angelou‘s I know why the caged bird sings with so much of the word crippled. In the historical context I get it but it makes me shudder. The r word is worse for me. Also Margaret Atwood used it in the testaments and I almost stopped. She used it in the context of someone who was an asshole saying something rude so it made sense but still! Pick a different word!!! 😡😡😡 5y
Lauredhel @Prairiegirl_reading yes - old books are one thing, but it's 2019 and there's been no indication that this character is so terrible that they'd even use this language in tight third. 5y

KarynGood I have a daughter with special needs and every time I see or hear this word it breaks my heart. 5y
