showing solidarity

Usage Note

Solidario describes someone who shows solidarity or mutual support — se mostró solidario con las víctimas (he showed solidarity with the victims). It has a distinctly social and political flavour that the English 'supportive' lacks. The related noun solidaridad (solidarity) is central to political and humanitarian discourse in Spanish-speaking contexts.

Examples

"El vecindario fue muy solidario tras el accidente."

Natural Translation
