We all know that an ally is a person of privilege working to uplift marginalized groups and advance inclusion, but what does an ally actually look like?
Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to look (or identify) a certain way to be one. According to Andre Herring, Diversity and Inclusion Specialist at Spin, privilege is intersectional, so everyone has the ability to be an ally!
