In many local languages, there are many labelling words referring to people with disabilities. The attitude of the able-bodied disables both the abled and the disabled. On the other hand, however, in some cases this exercise has now swung to the other extreme. People, especially the able bodied, seek to find words that salve their conscience rather than change their prejudice. It is worse when words become a substitute for changing that reality.
Language becomes a smokescreen to hide deeper prejudices.
We must fight against linguistic insults, to be sure. But let us not hide behind linguistic relief either. To bring real relief we have to change the material and social reality of the disabled people. We have to change the behaviour of both the PWDs and the able bodied people by developing a positive attitude towards one another. This is the essence of mainstream integration.
