A little primer on how to be a good ally:
First, DON’T demand that those you are supporting produce proof of the inequality they are working to resist.
DO recognize that the shield of your privilege may blind you to the experience of others’ injustice.
DON’T offer up your relationship with a member of the marginalized group as evidence of your understanding.
DO be open to learning and expanding your consciousness by listening more and talking less.
DON’T see yourself as the Kevin Costner in “Dances with Wolves” or the Tom Cruise in “The Last Samurai.” You are NOT the savior riding to the rescue on a white horse. DO notice that you are joining a group of people who are already working to save themselves.
DO realize that the only requirement you need to enter ally-ship is a commitment to justice and human equality.

“I’m tired of the manipulation,” said Michael Jackson, who was reluctant to allow the media to tape his brief remarks. “The press has manipulated the truth. They’re liars. History books are a lie. You need to know this, you must know this, that all forms of popular music, from jazz to rock to hip-hop, and dance, from the jitterbug to the Charleston, are black. But go down to the corner bookstore, and you won’t see one black person on a cover. You’ll see Elvis Presley. You’ll see the Rolling Stones. But where are the real pioneers?”
Citing Otis Blackwell [pictured] as one such pioneer deserving of larger recognition, Jackson said that there was something terribly amiss in a system that would find Blackwell dying penniless despite having penned such classics as “Don’t Be Cruel,” “All Shook Up” and “Great Balls of Fire.” “They didn’t write one book about him that I know of, and I’ve searched the world over,” Jackson said. “And he was a prolific, phenomenal writer.”
