Are you ready to commit to allyship and action?
Are you tired/ overwhelmed/ stressed/ numb?
It's okay if you are, as long as you feel strong enough to create space for others
Are you informed, well-prepared to discuss race with your friends/ colleagues/ family?
Is your relationship with this person/ group of people strong enough that they trust you? If not, what are the barriers to gaining that trust?
Ask: "What do you know? What have you seen? How are you feeling?"
Observe: any changes in mood or behavior
In dialogue, we play the role of being teachers/ facilitators and lifelong learners
Practice humility, openness, and restraint
Listen deeply and intentionally
Call in, don't call out
Remind others (and yourself) that BIPOC have endured racism for centuries - continue to share stories of resilience
Don't be afraid to speak up and correct people - and inversely, don't be afraid to accept fault if you are corrected
Be clear, direct, and factual
Don't avoid talking about it - racism is not new and the status quo is not addressing it
Protest and activism strengthens sense of community and connection to larger anti-racism and other social justice movements
Sense of empowerment and agency when speaking out about injustices
Visions of more equitable future
For White folks: activism is crucial to unlearning and decolonizing our own imbedded anti-Blackness
