Do not respond to this email. VIDEO: THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE IDENTITY VIDEO: THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE IDENTITY Print The disability language conundrum continues. It is a fluid landscape as language often is. In the disability community, there are two camps of thought about how to refer to disability: People-First Language and Identity-First Language. So, what does that mean and how do you know what to choose? People-First Language emphasizes the person first, not their disability. The key to remember is “with”—people with disabilities. When using People-First Language, you can talk about a child with epilepsy or an adult with a learning disability. Identity-First Language puts the disability first because it is a central and integral part of life. For Identity-First Language, you would say a blind person or a deaf athlete. There are situations when it isn’t clear which type of language to use. If you’re working directly with someone who identifies as disabled, ask them what they prefer. It is a great way to communicate respect and clear up any confusion. If you’re not sure and the situation doesn’t allow you to confirm language preferences, it is common to default to People-First Language. Some disability groups (deaf, autistic, and many people in the blind community) prefer Identity-First Language. They embrace their disability as a key part of how they experience the world and reject the stigma and shame that is often associated with it. Watch: Check out this video about the difference between these two terms. The video makers went to the source by asking those who identify as disabled what language they prefer. Listen to what these Facebook users say about their “why.” Need help with this video? Click Here Take Action: Even if this is the first time you’ve heard about these competing schools of thought on disability language, you have a great opportunity to put it into practice. Pay attention to how disabled people refer to themselves or their communities. Watch for ways that you can change your own language when talking about disability. When you can, engage in meaningful conversation with someone who identifies as disabled. And remember that language is powerful, and your words matter.
