Ableist Beyonce video: Beyoncé to remove ableist slur from ‘Heated‘ after backlash from disability campaigners
So @Beyonce used the word 'spaz' in her new song Heated. Feels like a slap in the face to me, the disabled community & the progress we tried to make with Lizzo. Guess I'll just keep telling the whole industry to 'do better' until ableist slurs disappear from music 💔
