solidarity vs. allies
I've seen some debate around the term 'ally', the argument being that it's built on someone else's oppression. How do you feel about calling others/yourself an ally? I've seen the alternate term 'solidarity' advanced ("I'm doing solidarity work" vs. "I'm an ally"). Does this solve the problem/ignore another one?
