Beyond fragility : a skills-based guide to effective anti-racist allyship / by Mekawi, Yara,author.; Watson-Singleton, Natalie,author.; Dawson, Danyelle,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Anti-racism work cannot be reduced to a single checklist of "dos" and "don'ts." As society shifts its perspective on true allyship, moving from being "not racist" to "anti-racist," White allies are being called upon to actively work toward changing the status quo. However, the vast majority of resources on this topic emphasize educating allies about anti-racism without teaching them how to actually do anti-racism work. This leaves well-meaning allies feeling stuck, frustrated, and afraid of getting it wrong. Beyond Fragility fills this undeniable gap by providing you with a concrete, step-by-step approach to effective anti-racism allyship. Filled with case examples, guided reflections, and skill-building exercises, this book provides you with the skills to understand and avoid common mishaps in anti-racist work, such as misunderstanding what racism is, not knowing how to recognize racism, or not having a clear anti-racist identity; cope with intense emotions like guilt, fear, hopelessness, and anger that may arise when discussing racism and privilege; and navigate complex interpersonal interactions, whether it's validating the experiences of BIPOC peers, recovering from a racist misstep, or speaking out against racist comments. Anti-racist allyship is not an innate essence, nor is it something you were born knowing how to do. But with the tools in this book, you can learn new skills that allow you to engage in impactful and sustainable allyship in every space you occupy"--

Good guys : how men can be better allies for women in the workplace / by Smith, David(David Glenn),1965-author.(CARDINAL)837165; Johnson, W. Brad,author.(CARDINAL)271539;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Men: the missing ingredient in gender equity -- Part I. Interpersonal allyship: how to show up in workplace relationships with women: Sharpen your GQ (gender intelligence) -- To be legit as an ally, start at home -- Showing up for women at work: everyday interactions -- Friendships with women at work: trust and reciprocity -- Part II.

Systemic allyship: how to step up as an organizational change agent -- Organizational change starts with you and your leadership -- Developing a culture of allyship -- Conclusion: The future in the world of allies."What's missing from gender equality efforts? Men. Women are at a disadvantage in the workplace, where they deal with unequal pay, sexual harassment, lack of credit for their contributions, and more. And while organizations are looking to address these issues, too many gender-inclusion initiatives focus exclusively on how women should respond, leaving men out of the equation. Such efforts reinforce the perception that these are "women's issues" and that men--often the most powerful stakeholders in an organization--don't need to be involved. As gender-in-the-workplace experts David G. Smith and W. Brad Johnson show in this important book, men have a crucial opportunity to promote gender equality at work. Research shows that when men are deliberately engaged in gender-inclusion programs, 96 percent of women in those organizations perceive real progress in gender equality, compared with only 30 percent of women in organizations without strong male engagement. Good Guys is the first book to provide a practical, research-based guide for how to be a male ally to women in the workplace. Filled with firsthand accounts from both men and women, as well as tips for getting started, the book shows how men can partner with their female colleagues to advance women's leadership and equality by breaking ingrained gender stereotypes, overcoming unconscious biases, developing and supporting the talented women around them, and creating productive and respectful working relationships with women--especially in a post-#MeToo world"--
