OUR FIRST STOP IS

THE MUSEUM OF PERFORMATIVE ALLYSHIP

HERE WE HAVE STORED THE DIFFERENT KINDS ALLYSHIP THAT IS PERFORMED.

 

THIS ALLYSHIP IS OFTEN HOLLOW

ONE THAT DOESN'T PROVIDE TANGABLE HELP TO THOSE THAT THEY CLAIM TO BE IN SUPPORT OF.

​

THESE ALLIES OFTEN CONTINUE TO UPHOLD WHITE SUPREMACY

​

IF YOU FEEL OFFENDED THEN PERHAPS

 

YOU ARE FEELING GUILTY 

 

OR HAVE BEEN EXPECTING APPRECTIAION FOR YOUR EFFORTS

CURRENT PERFORMATIVE ALLIES IN THE GALLERY

​

THE "I HAVE BLACK AND TRANS FRIENDS"ALLY

THESE  ALLIES WILL INSIST THAT THEY KNOW HOW YOU ARE FEELING BECAUSE THEY HAVE A TOKEN "MINORITY FRIEND" THAT THEY USE AS AN EXAMPLE OF A SOMEONE "SIMILAR TO YOU" THAT AGGRES WITH THEM. THEY WILL OFTEN REBUT WHAT YOU ARE SAYING BY INSISTING THAT THEY CLEARED THEIR ACTIONS VIA  THIS UNSEEN TOKEN 

THE ALLY THAT TALKS OF SUPPORT AND SOLIDATIRTY BUT CONTINUES TO TAKE JOBS AND OPPORTUNITIES FROM YOU

THESE ALLIES ARE HARD TO SPOT. THEY OFTEN WILL HANG AROUND YOU GETTING INTO CONVERSATIONS ABOUT HOW TO MAKE THE WORLD BETTER ALL THE WHILE USING THESE CONVERSATIONS TO GET JOBS. THEY OFTEN KNOW THAT THEY ARE DOING SOMETHING SHADY AND WILL ADMIT THIS AFTER A WHILE ONLY TO BE OBSOLVED OF THEIR GUILT AND PRAISED FOR THEIR TRANPARENCY. THEY OFTEN GET OPPORTUNITS TO BRING IN PEOPLE BUT WILL ONLY BRING IN PEOPLE LIKE THEMSELVES TO AVOID CONFLICT.

THE ALLY THAT USES BLACK PAIN AS THEIR FORM OF COMMUNICATING THIR SUPPORT

THIS ALLY WILL INSIST ON STARTING A CONVERSATION ABOUT A TRUAMATIC EVENT. THEY CAN ONLY SEE YOU AS HUMAN WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT PAIN. THEY CONSUME IT AND ENJOY IT. OFTEN ALL THEIR FRIENDS WILL BE WHITE. THEY SEE YOU AS DELICATE SCARY AND ONLY INTERESTING BECAUSE YOU ARE IN PAIN. DONT BE SURPRISED IF THEY RANDOMLY BRING UP A TOPIC THATS TO DO WITH VIOLENCE OF BODIES LIKE YOURS AND PERFORM INTENSE EMOTIONS FOR YOU TO DEAL WITH. OFTEN BREAKS INTO TEARS IN AN ATTEMPT TO SEEM EMPATHETIC.

THE ALLY THAT NEVER LISTENS 

THIS ALLY HAS STUDIED YOUR LIFE IN TEXT AND VIDEOS . THEY BELIEVE THEY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU HAVE GONE THROUGH BECAUSE THEY HAVE SECOND HAND EXEPREINCE OF YOU. THEY SEE YOUR EXPERIENCE AS THEORY. WHEN THEY ARE CHALLENGED THEY WILL GET DEFENSIVE AND REFERENCE A TEXT TO SHOW THEY ARE "WOKE". THEY ARE BEST AVOIDED.
