Racially marginalized communities are socially and politically active, yet there is limited work that examines the psychological forces underlying how People of Color engage in cross-racial solidarity and collective action. We propose a model of politicized racial identity and collective action to Asian American participation in own-group collective action and African American collective action. In Study 1, we tested the model using correlational data. In Study 2, we used an experiment to explore whether politicized identities predict collective action. Results support the relation between politicized identities and collective action. Politicized Person of Color identity predicted Asian American engagement in both own-group-oriented collective action (Study 2) and African American-oriented (Study 1, Study 2) collective action. Further, politicized Asian American identity predicted Asian American engagement in own-group collective action (Study 1). These findings provide empirical evidence for the role of politicized identities in predicting collective action, including cross-racial solidarity with African Americans.

种族边缘化社区在社会和政治上都很活跃，但研究有色人种如何参与跨种族团结和集体行动的心理力量的工作有限。我们为亚裔美国人参与自己的群体集体行动和非裔美国人的集体行动提出了一个政治化的种族认同和集体行动模型。在研究 1 中，我们使用相关数据测试了模型。在研究 2 中，我们使用了一个实验来探索政治化的身份是否能预测集体行动。结果支持政治化身份与集体行动之间的关系。有色人种身份的政治化人物预测亚裔美国人参与以自己群体为导向的集体行动（研究 2）和以非裔美国人为导向的集体行动（研究 1，研究 2）。更远，政治化的亚裔美国人身份预示着亚裔美国人参与自己的群体集体行动（研究 1）。这些发现为政治化身份在预测集体行动中的作用提供了经验证据，包括与非裔美国人的跨种族团结。
