Allyship as a Practice

The idea of allyship can have lots of complications but in many ways comes down to: how do we show up for each other? Allyship is a powerful offering that we can make to each other, and it is essential to learn how to do so with deep listening, individualized care and authenticity. In this session, we’ll explore that learning, drawing on our own and others’ experiences as well as the ways that experts and activists have developed excellent tools for us to practice. We’ll be working towards better tools for supporting each others’ particular needs and experiences, and helping our campers learn to do so as well. – Submitted by Sarra Alpert
