Beyond Cancel Culture: Embracing Accountability for True Allyship

Beyond Cancel Culture: Embracing Accountability for True Allyship

Presented by Makaylah Rogers (they/them) & Fia-Lynn Crandall (she/her), Owners of Frankie D’s Donuts & Scale Naturally

In today’s world, inclusion efforts are necessary, critical and need to be prioritized. Rates of hate crimes against the 2SLGBTQIA+ community are increasing, as well as suicide rates (especially for youth, trans & non-binary folks). It is no longer okay to stand on the sidelines as microaggressions and ignorance continue to hurt the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.

 

However, we also know that the fear of being ‘canceled’ is stopping well-intentioned allies from stepping up.

This session invites both the queer community and allies to engage in a powerful conversation on moving beyond cancel culture toward accountability, where we can grow and do better together.

Through a blend of education, storytelling, and open dialogue, we’ll explore:

    •         How accountability can build stronger, more inclusive communities

    •         Practical tools for learning from mistakes and having tough conversations about inclusion

    •         What true allyship in action requires—imperfection and all

Whether you’re afraid of messing up or exhausted from constant microaggressions, this session offers a path forward, turning mistakes into opportunities for growth and deeper connection.
