I read through the Buzz Feed article on how to be a good ally. Some of these questions really hit me hard. Especially the question, "Have you ever asked or expected people from marginalized groups to "show you" how to be a good ally?" I'll admit, I am guilty of this. I am guilty of looking to my friends and colleagues of color to speak up if something isn't right, or trusting that they'll find inequities in our school. Thankfully, through equity and antiracist work and through the mentorship that a lot of my friends of color have given me in this work, I know so much better now than to rely on my friends and colleagues of color to be the voice of equity and antiracism.
