“The theory of allyship offered here would seem to be informed by a genuine desire to follow the lead of communities in struggle while remaining ethically accountable to these groups. By respecting the experiential knowledge and tactical intelligence of groups directly impacted by specific forms of oppression, good allies would in theory remain attentive to forms of power, prejudice, and ignorance that reproduce oppressive dynamics within activist spaces.

“We have moral responsibilities to other people in our community because they are people, regardless of their race, ethnicity, gender, or lot in life. According to the Christian and Jewish view of humanity, all people have inherent dignity because they are made in the image of God. And thus we should show respect to and concern for those of both genders and all races and nationalities.”
