Moving from Allyship to Solidarity Graphic

For white Folks and Non-Black People of Color:

The action ideas here are based on 20 articles specifically on “allyship.” All the articles are written by Black authors, and it appears that around 75% of the authors are Black women. We counted 142 specific action idea suggestions and noticed some clear themes emerge. Read more about Moving from Allyship to Solidarity on Fakequity.

If you appreciate the graphic or the blog post, please donate to Black journalists and artists. If you can’t think of any to support, I recommend Converge Media, South Seattle Emerald, Wear Your Voice, Wa Na Wari, Blavity, Black Youth Project, Crutches and Spice, and the Octavia’s Parables Podcast.

If you used the graphic in any way, we are asking for accountability on how you compensated Black journalists or artists. Send us an email and let us know. Let’s practice accountability (and not more extraction of Black labor).
