DISABLED is not a bad word, and it never was.
This pin is for anyone reclaiming disability with pride. It’s a quiet protest against the shame, the soft language, and the assumptions we didn’t ask for. You’re not “differently abled.” You’re disabled, and that’s not a bad thing.
Featuring bold typography on a soft, calming base, this 2.25" pin makes space for truth without being overwhelming. It’s ideal for advocacy, self-identification, or just standing firm in your identity.
Perfect for:
- Disabled adults and allies
- Educators, therapists, and access advocates
- Confronting bias gently but clearly
It’s not just a word. It’s yours.
