… until it’s time to do some real ally shit.

Xhopakelxhit, a member of Ancestral Pride, (some badass, grassroots, indigenous, direct action land defenders from unceded Ahousat territory) made this zine about how to be anti-racist/anti-capitalist white settler ally to people in all kinds of struggles—indigenous and otherwise.

Featuring artwork from Gord Hill and Annie Banks, this zine offers very concrete action ideas and resources that anyone can empower themselves with in the battle for restorative justice and building allies with settlers.

"Not everyone is a warrior. Not everyone wants to be in confrontational situations with the police and governments, or angry people. However, most of the people who fall into this category are often pigeonholed as being a bull horn blow hard and march organizer. Creating a culture of resistance and support requires us all to know what our strong suits and talents. Additionally, we must cultivate them so they benefit the cause in a manner that is respectful and meaningful."

Joseph ★★★★★

This little zine packs a punch—the “real ally shit” line on the cover made me laugh and then think. It’s compact enough to toss in a bag and pass around at a meeting.

Edward S. ★★★★★

The design is simple but the message cuts deep—every page makes you think about what real solidarity actually looks like. I've already passed it along to three friends who needed to hear this.

Richard I. ★★★★★

Didn't expect a zine to hit this hard, but the section on what real allyship actually requires — showing up, not just posting — had me rethinking a few things. The writing from an Ancestral Pride member keeps it grounded in direct action rather than vague theory. Short read, but I've already passed
