Abstract
This chapter adds to the body of scholarship on accompliceship by building on the notion that the allocation of risk is a key concept. In thinking about the ways an accomplice should justly (re)allocate risk, we center systems, feelings, and temporality. Using these concepts as heuristics for mapping materialities of risk, with the understanding that each of these approaches are always already saturated with the complexities of power, positionality, and privilege, we forward specific suggestions for ways that accomplices can do their work, including hailing other accomplices to help drive the labor-intensive task of re-orienting technical and professional communication toward equity and justice.
