Hi and thank you for visiting me today.
You may not know it
But I am different
Different how
You may ask
Because I don’t look it
And, some other people do
You see me every day
You may talk to me
But in less
I told you
I have an intellectual disability
You will not know it
Some people
You can tell right away
That they have an
Intellectual disability
They are just the same as you
Buy a little different
A lot of people
Still don’t want us
In the world
See this video
Some still live in institutions
Across the world
Not given the chance to learn
That are misunderstood and mistreated
Just because there different
But given the chance
You will learn
Something uncommon
Then from most
That, you will just
Have to find it out
For yourself
Ask yourself this one question
Why do people
Still use the word “retarded”?
That word to us
Is a hate word
Those who use it
Should use another word
People say the r-word
Does not hurt
Well think again
Did anyone ever
Say a word to you
You did not like
Now you know what it like
When those who say
The r-word
Who do you RESPECT?
The new r-word
