Being an “ally” is kind of cringe. Why?
Milly Tamarez, comedian and writer who created the viral White Forgiveness Project, and Hari Kondabolu, comedian-filmmaker known for The Problem with Apu, debate what allyship looks like today. They riff on performative gestures versus sustained action. They share stories about viral reckonings, public apologies, crediting community voices, and the emotional costs of visibility.
