This session will explore what solidarity means among racially marginalized groups in I-O. Many conversations around allyship or positive intergroup relations are often centered on the relationship between dominant and marginalized groups; however, there are fewer conversations about the relationships among different marginalized groups. This session will focus on the relationship among racially marginalized groups, the history of these groups’ relations, the benefits and challenges of building solidarity, and what solidarity could look like both in the workplace and within the field of I-O.
