At EQuality Training we have used the following guidelines to promote awareness of disability issues through the use of respectful language. It demands an intentional and deliberate change by the speaker to stop the perpetuation of wrong assumptions about difference. The adoption of these guidelines should help to challenge thinking that creates discrimination, as it promotes a responsibility to accept difference, rather than shift the individual blame for it onto members of certain groups.
This is a presentation I gave at the Conference for Global Transformation in San Francisco May 2008. It is an idea developed with my students in a hip-hop class in 2005.

Stumbling
Intercultural
Communication
,LARAY 1\1. BARNA
Why is it that contact with persons from other cul-
tures so often is frustrating and fraught with misun-
derstanding? Good intentions, the use of what one
considers to be a friendly approach, and even the
possibility of mutual benefits don't seem to be suffi-
cient - to many people's surprise. A worse scenario
is when rejection occurs just because the group to
which a person belongs is "different." It's appropri-
ate at this time of major changes in the international
scene to take a hard look at S0111e of the reasons for
this, New proximity and new types of relationships
are presenting cornmurucation challenges that few
people are ready to meet.
THE SIX STUMBLING BLOCKS
I. Assumption of Similarities
One answer to the question of why misunderstand-
ing and/or rejection occurs is that many people na-
ively assume there are sufficient similarities among
peoples of the world to make communication easy.
They expect that simply being human, having com-
mon requirements of food, shelter, security, and so
on, makes everyone alike. Unfortunately they over-
look the fact that the forms of adaptation to these

common biological and social needs and the
beliefs, and attitudes surrounding them are vastly
different from culture to culture. The biological
commonallties are not much help when it comes to
communication, where we need to ideas
and information, find ways to live and work to-
gether, or just make the kind of impression we want
to make,
Another reason many people are lured into
thinking that "people are people" is that it reduces
the discomfort of dealing with difference. If some-
one acts or looks "strange;' (different from them)
it's then possible to evaluate this as "wrong" and
treat everyone ethnocentrically.
The assumption of similarity does not often ex-
tend to the expectation of a COn11TlOn verbal lan-
guage but it does interfere with caution in decoding
nonverbal symbols, signs, and signals. No C1'085-
cultural studies have proven the existence of a corn-
man nonverbal language except those in support of
Darwin's theory that facial expressions are univer-
sal.' Ekman (1976) found that "the particular visible
pattern. on the face, the combination of muscles con-
tracted for anger, fear, surprise, sadness, disgust,
happiness (and probably also for interest) is the
same for all members of our species" (pp 19-20).
This seems helpful. until it is realized that a per-
son's cultural upbringing determines whether or
not the emotion will be displayed or suppressed, as
well as on which occasions and to what degree (Ek-
man & Friesen, 1969, p. 1). The situations that bring
about the emotional feeling also differ from culture
to cultu ...

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Mr. Rush Limbaugh
1270 Ave of The Americas, 9th Floor
NY, NY 10020
Dear Mr. Limbaugh:
I incredulously listened to the segment in your show in which you repeatedly and
offensively used the term “retard” in reference to our meeting with White House Chief of Staff
Rahm Emanuel.
As a public figure, you have the great opportunity to influence the hearts and minds of
millions of people in this country and around the world. People with intellectual disabilities –
the largest group of people with disabilities in the world – have suffered generations of
discrimination and humiliation. In the 21st century, they, together with their families and friends,
are continuing their battle for the simplest form of justice: the justice that comes with a
recognition of their full humanity. In their eyes and in the hearts of millions of others who love
and care about them, language is important. So together, we have chosen to try to sensitize
others to the pervasive but often ignored prejudice they suffer by asking for a change of language
and a change of heart. For you or for anyone else to mock those who strive, often against long
odds, for the recognition and respect they deserve, seems gratuitously hurtful and degrading.
Our message is as simple as it is powerful: people with intellectual disabilities are human
beings. Gaining social recognition of that humanity continues to be an elusive goal for them and
for those who love and care about them. For centuries, they have borne the stigma of
institutionalization, sterilization, social isolation, and bigotry. The names associated with them –
such as “retarded” and “retard” – have for too long been used as cruel taunts.
Despite the searing pain that this word (and others) has visited on millions, people with
intellectual disabilities have nonetheless persevered to try to gain their dignity. For half a
century, mothers, fathers, siblings, and people with intellectual disabilities have worked to open
the eyes of the world to the simple truth that each of us has gifts. They do not deserve to be
mocked by you.
Our “Spread the Word to End the Word” campaign is aimed at changing the perception
that the R-word is acceptable and the good news is that the world is beginning to slowly change.
Classrooms are becoming more tolerant, communities more accepting and the work place more
inclusive as people with intellectual disabilities are slowly being seen for what we’ve always

known them to be – people of value who help us all to understand we are each gifted in unique
ways. But this change is too slow and each use of the R-word as a synonym for a stupid action, a
schoolyard taunt, or the punch line of a joke, slows our progress immeasurably.
Great heroes like Special Olympics athlete Loretta Claiborne, are visiting school after
school to explain that "retard" and "retarded" are words that caused them unbearable pain as
children and continue to reflect deep misunderstanding today. Loretta has the courage to face
her disability in public, to ask that others treat her with respect, and to ask for more sensitive and
caring attitudes in the future. In response, many are joining her, Special Olympics, Best
Buddies, and a coalition of organizations in asking children to pledge never to use the word
again – not as a joke, not as a description of behavior, not as an epithet. In my own experience,
when I ask people – be they first graders or media figures – to join in stopping the casual use of
the word "retarded", they universally agree to do so. Most want to go further: they want to
understand better how they can serve as agents of acceptance and dignity.
Loretta is a role model and if given the chance to speak her mind on your program, she
and many others like her would inspire you and your audience with her wisdom and toughness.
This is a teachable moment. May I ask you to join her now by ending your use of this term and
by further using your great influence and position to help others do the same?
Best wishes,
