Abstract	Cross-cultural mentoring can be loosely defined as a reciprocal mentoring relationship where the mentor and mentee do not share any one of many personal identities. In this study, personal narratives convey what a White scholar learned about cross-cultural mentoring from a Black academic, focusing on two events. Critical findings and reflections include the necessity for White allies in cross-cultural mentoring relationships to anticipate difference rather than discomfort, to commit to paying analytic and holistic attention to their mentor, and to seek opportunities to mitigate any cultural taxation that people of color may pay inside and outside of the relationship. (As Provided).
