“How to be a GOOD ALLY!” By LaTierra Piphus Courtesy of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) publication on 10 Ways to Be an Ally & a Friend

1. Be a listener.

2. Be open-minded.

3. Be willing to talk.

4. Be inclusive and invite LGBT friends to hang out with your friends and family.

5. Don't assume that all your friends and co-workers are straight. Someone close to you could be looking for support in their coming-out process. Not making assumptions will give them the space they need.

6. Homophobic comments and jokes are harmful. Let your friends, family and co-workers know that you find them offensive.

7.Confront your own prejudices and homophobia, even if it is uncomfortable to do so.

8. Defend your LGBT friends against discrimination.

9. Believe that all people, regardless of gender identity and sexual orientation, should be treated with dignity and respect.

10. If you see LGBT people being misrepresented in the media, SPEAK UP!

What should I do next?  Attend a Safe Zone training  Make a Declaration to yourself to stand on the side of LOVE  Reassure your LGBTQ friends that you are there for them.  The congratulate yourself for learning, growing & maturing into the person you want to be!
