Allyship 101: Don’t call yourself an Ally. Allyship is an action, not an identity. The title of ally is not self-proclaimed, but rather granted by others. It is a designation that requires effort to attain, yet can be easily revoked. Recognition as an ally is subjective, as it is dependent on the perceptions of individuals within a particular community. Ultimately, the decision lies with them, not with the individual seeking allyship.
