Being an Ally

This packet has been compiled to facilitate a workshop which aims to introduce ideas of anti-oppression, privilege and ally-hood in a friendly and accessible way. The text is a compilation of various sources (see our “References” in the Further Resources section), along with the authors’ own thoughts and editions.

We hope this will be a “living” document, constantly open to change and reinterpretation. Our understandings of anti-oppression will always be changing and growing. We hope that in the meantime, the information here can serve as a useful tool in working towards social justice!
