The topic of this week’s workshop will be on Allyship vs. Accomplice-ship, seeking to describe the differences between the two and explore what each looks like in action. Keep learning how we can best show up for one another. This digital series is intended to open minds and hearts to the experiences of those who often go unseen, pre-judged, or misunderstood. To not see color is to not see the differences and complexities of the human experience. Through the “I Don’t See Color” series, Yoga Alliance invites our worldwide community into a space for listening, learning and conversation. When someone says, “I don’t see color,” the intent may be one of non-harming, but the message received can have the effect of bypassing someone else’s trauma or lived experience because it does not look like your own. We are here to share and converse, with the hope that you, the listener, will take these experiences and the information provided for self-reflection. Because life, without empathy, is cruelty.
