Get ready for Blogging against Disablism Day 2008!

Back for a third year, the event that is Blogging Against Disablism Day, once again hosted by The Goldfish on May 1. We've been thrilled to be part of BADD the last two years, and we'll definitely have a contribution this time around too. Last year, more than 170 bloggers around the world participated, and it was a great day of reading and commenting. Goldfish has once again declared "language amnesty" for the day, so use the terms that are right and best for your purposes in your part of the world, and expect that others will do the same. But do write something, and do read across the disability blogosphere on May 1--you won't be disappointed.

Oh--Goldfish has the complete instructions. But in sum, no deadline, and you don't have to sign up (that's optional). Just post something on or around May 1, and put a comment at Goldfish's blog letting her know the link. That's it.
