The newest column from Rogette Harris, Chairwoman for Black History Month. Allyship isn’t a label. It’s a practice. It asks more of us than good intentions and hashtags or having a Black friend or two. It asks for discomfort, accountability, and action. What does being an ally to communities of color mean to you?

Having Black friends doesn't prove you're not biased. True solidarity requires challenging harmful narratives at the dinner table, in the workplace, and in your own thinking.
