Leaning Into Allyship with Liz Pachaud
Listen above, on Apple Podcasts or Spotify
In this episode, I’m talking with Liz Pachaud about what it means to be an ally. Liz is a co-chair of the Seattle Human Rights Commission and a freelance writer on food, politics and culture. She is the co-host of the podcast Thanks in Advance and the host of the restaurant industry podcast, Closed on Mondays, launching later this spring.
She is also the politics and activism editor here at Lionesse and an amazing resource on all things local politics and social justice.
We got into so much goodness on this episode:
What performative allyship is and isn’t
How true allyship helps us all
How to resist the temptation to center your own experience in the age of social media
The pros and cons of Body Positivity
Steps for abolishing fat phobia
It’s a good one. Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
