“…As the U.S. and other countries continue to grow more racially diverse, interactions between Black Americans and members of other minority groups are becoming more common. While these interactions offer much promise for positive intergroup interaction, coalition building, and social change (e.g., Ball & Branscombe, 2019;Craig et al, 2018), there will inevitably be occasions in which there are negative interactions and discrimination occurs. Understanding when observers interpret negative interactions as discrimination provides information about when victims of discrimination will receive social, institutional, and legal support.…”

As the United States becomes more racially and ethnically diverse, interactions between Black people and other minority groups have become increasingly common. The present research examined how a perpetrator’s group membership affects judgments of employment discrimination against a Black victim. Four experiments (combined N = 1,016) tested predictions derived from the prototype model of discrimination. Participants reviewed a case file where a Black, Latino, Asian, or White manager rejected a Black job applicant. Attributions to discrimination were much stronger for a Latino, Asian, or White manager compared with a Black manager. Attributions to discrimination were slightly stronger for a White manager compared with an Asian or Latino manager; however, effect sizes for these differences were small. Attributions to discrimination were similar for the Asian and Latino managers. Whether the perpetrator had outgroup standing relative to the victim was the strongest factor influencing attributions to discrimination for a Black victim of employment discrimination.

“…It is possible that common experiences of stigmatization and injustice (e.g., Shnabel et al, 2013;Volhardt, 2015) may facilitate the development of moral and outgroup-focused motivations among disadvantaged group allies. At the same time, competition over scarce economic resources, victim status and/or public support (e.g., Burson & Godfrey, 2018;Noor et al, 2017) can be perceived as threatening and trigger the need to maintain positive distinctiveness of one's own group (Ball & Branscombe, 2019;Branscombe et al, 1999;Craig & Richeson, 2014). Consequently, the willingness to engage in an action for another disadvantaged group may be constrained by the potential to reap benefits for their own group (e.g., improved status) or themselves personally.…”

The introduction to the EJSP special issue brings together recent literature on allyship. We present and discuss different definitions of allyship and highlight a multiple perspectives approach to understanding the predictors and consequences of allyship. This approach suggests that engagement in allyship can be driven by egalitarian and non‐egalitarian motivations and that the behaviours identified as allyship can have different meanings, causes and consequences depending on whether researchers take into account the allies’ perspective or the disadvantaged groups’ perspective. We use this approach as an organizing principle to identify themes that emerge in the papers included in this special issue. We start with four papers that consider the perspective of the advantaged group, followed by two papers that consider the perspective of the disadvantaged group. Finally, we introduce two theoretical papers that examine the relations between disadvantaged groups and allies, and we set out directions for future research.

“…Moreover, Hinduism predominates in Bali but is a minority religion on the national scale. Inter-minority solidarity towards stigmatised alienated groups may thus make Hindus more tolerant and accepting of other minority groups (Ball and Branscombe, 2019).…”

“…Inter-minority solidarity could also explain the high level of tolerance reported by Catholic university students towards atheism and believers of indigenous religions. Categorising oneself as a fellow minority could result in a feeling of moral obligation and create a sense of unity with other minority groups experiencing the same fate (Ball and Branscombe, 2019;Glasford and Calcagno, 2012).…”

National discourses that are acceptable by the alienated groups determine the level of public tolerance towards those groups. This study thus examined the relationships between religious schema and tolerance of two alienated groups in Indonesia, namely, the atheists and believers in indigenous faiths. Additionally, the study explored the differences in tolerance of these two groups across university cohorts encompassing discrete social climates and curricula. This cross-sectional study involved several universities with differing demographic makeup. The analysis results revealed that the characteristics of the evaluated target group determined the significance of the associations between the dimensions of religious schema and tolerance. Moreover, students in homogeneous educational and social environments tended to exhibit low levels of tolerance towards alienated groups. This study highlighted the importance of scrutinising the functions of intergroup exposure and dialogues in improving intergroup understanding, acceptance, and tolerance within a plural society.
