PRAISE FOR Allies and Advocates "Do you have an appetite for radical candor? In Allies and Advocates, Amber Cabral takes you by the hand and leads you into a world of vulnerability and self-exploration from which you emerge as an instrument of change. She is the authentic voice we didn't know was missing from the conversation. Witty, wise, and full of gems, this is the no-nonsense guide we've been waiting for-from a voice we can trust." --KISHA MODICA, Head of Equality & Belonging, Gap Inc. "The work is never easy. Yet, Cabral's Allies and Advocates attempts to make the work simpler through sharp, cogent storytelling from her transformative work across multiple sectors. Cabral's book brings the reader to a shared clarity and understanding of humanity in a time of great uncertainty and injustice." --JOSÉ LUIS VILSON, author, This is Not a Test and Executive Director, EduColor "A must-read for anyone curious about how to contribute towards a more equitable society. Amber simply and effectively provides historical events in context and arms us with necessary vocabulary, concepts, and steps for all of us to act, ally, and advocate in service of the marginalized. Why? Because black lives matter too, because we all have some privilege that we can choose to turn into power to uplift the underrepresented and dismantle oppressive systems, because of our shared humanity." --LYNN WONG, Senior Director II, Global Logistics, Walmart Inc. "Allies and Advocates is a must-read for any professional seeking to create or enhance an inclusive environment. Especially during the current climate, the importance of this book is immeasurable! With every page, Amber paints a portrait of what true inclusion looks like, whether it's applied to the workplace, or to one's personal life. The authenticity of Amber's delivery is not only easy to digest, but also informative and has something every person can take away regardless of background, race, ethnicity, gender, age, or experience. Awesomely, fantastic work!" --LATRICIA HILL-CHANDLER, Diversity and Inclusion Officer, Arvest Bank
