Abstract: The concept of collective identity emphasizes the importance of solidarity, collective strength, and coalition building among social groups in order to establish empowering educational systems, while still critically acknowledging the role that intersectionality, privilege, and power play in society and in students' lives. This brief summarizes the article "All we need is one mic: A call for anti-racist solidarity to deconstruct anti-Black racism in educational leadership," where authors Genao et al. (2021) make the case that much of the work in the areas of community and coalition building among diverse groups tends to follow color-evasive (color blind) approaches and centers the needs and experiences of those in power (i.e., white people). Therefore, in order to better prepare school leaders for today's socio-political climate, the authors call for the reconceptualization of solidarity as work that is committed to anti-racism and centers the identities of those most marginalized.
