End the R-Word PSA

This made me cry seeing it on TV.  This is something that is so close to my heart.  I don't mind this word when used correctly, as a medical term or in its sense as a verb, but never as a derogatory word.  But people don't understand how hurtful it is as an everyday slang term and that it is, in fact, a slur.  Glad to see more public acknowledgement of that fact.
