Acting in Solidarity: Cross‐Group Contact between Disadvantaged Group Members and Advantaged Group Allies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider when such contact may harm rather than help resistance movements by disadvantaged groups and suggest that to avoid these undermining effects, advantaged group allies must effectively communicate support for social change, understand the implications of their own privilege, offer autonomy-oriented support, and resist the urge to increase their own feelings of inclusion by co-opting relevant marginalized social identities.
Journal ArticleDOI

What predicts environmental activism? The roles of identification with nature and politicized environmental identity

TL;DR: This paper found that politicized environmental identification is a proximal predictor of environmental activism, which warrants increased attention in theory, research, and interventions aimed at motivating PEB and environmental activism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tabea Hässler, +45 more
TL;DR: Using a large and heterogeneous dataset, Hässler et al. show that intergroup contact and support for social change towards greater equality are positively associated among members of advantaged groups, but negatively associated among disadvantaged groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emerging research on intergroup prosociality: group members' charitable giving, positive contact, allyship, and solidarity with others

TL;DR: A broad distinction between benevolence and activism serves as the foundation to explore forms of intergroup prosociality, such as charitable giving, displays of empathy and affirmation, allyship, and solidarity as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Renewed promise for positive cross-group contact: the role of supportive contact in empowering collective action

TL;DR: This paper found that positive cross-group contact in which an advantaged group member explicitly communicates opposition to inequality between groups ("supportive contact") would not undermine collective action and would be empowering for disadvantaged group members.
