Allies

Whether it is activism, logistics, graphic design or parenting, Elizabeth Boland brings an intelligence and passion to everything she does. Her open and honest journey as a parent raising a child with Down syndrome has helped a wide range of people ask better questions, seek out additional resources and find allies in unlikely places. In this podcast, we discuss the intersection of politics, advocacy and parenting in the age of misinformation and misperception.

What is Allies?

Allies is a podcast that brings together people of diverse backgrounds, ethnicities and experience to share their stories of success, of failure and of forging their paths in life. We dive head first into tough issues like race, privilege and justice to find the similarities and differences among us that make life interesting and challenging. It’s awkward, honest and real, the kind of conversations we need now more than ever.
