Will you take the pledge to end dehumanizing language with us?

Many of the kids and adults that RFK Community Alliance works with have encountered racism, ableism, homophobia, classism, and more. So to truly live our mission, RFK Community Alliance is taking a stand against dehumanizing language.

Because words matter. The way we talk about people—especially those going through tough times—shapes how they’re treated and how they see themselves. Labels can harm. But respect can heal.

• I believe every person deserves dignity and respect.

• I will choose words that honor and include all people.

• I will not use dehumanizing language.

• I will respect how people identify themselves.

• I will speak up when I hear harmful language.

• I will use my words to help everyone feel seen, heard, and valued.
