Resumen de Solidarity: Out of Guilt or Desire for Change?
This is a reflection on the concept of solidarity. In particular it looks at three cases and problematizes how solidarity is expressed in regards to each situation It links these thoughts with several definitions of solidarity that follow the case studies. This especially seeks to look at these situations critically. While the article is written with the author’s own perspective and identity in mind, it is applicable to all who enter into solidarity with a struggle or a cause that is not initially their own. It is the position of the author that solidary acts are often done uncritically and in turn distracts and harms the cause more than helps it.
