In this episode I flip and vibe with our enthusiastic viber Maja Kutlaca. Maja is Serbian and an Assistant Professor in Social Psychology at Durham University in England. Maja’s current research specifically investigates allyship and the nuances surrounding it. Our rich conversation draws out the ways in which lived experiences, influential colleagues, and research enhanced Maja’s understanding of how flippin’ the script to traditional/normative allyship becomes a gateway to multiple perspectives. For context, traditional allyship narratives deploy a glorification around individuals and at times focuses on a singular process rather than a collaborative praxis that is not distinctly positive or negative. In sum, allyship is fluid and there are multiple behaviours to interpret what it means to be an ally and how to work with and as one. Please tune in if you want to learn how to rehumanise through allyship. 😊 <3
