Carol Taylor-Shim leads KFTC staff in anti-oppression training
On Thursday, November 30, Carol Taylor-Shim led an Anti-Oppression training for KFTC’s staff team. Carol is currently the director of the Bias Incident Response team at the University of Kentucky, and has over a decade of experience in diversity, inclusion, and belonging and anti-racist/anti-oppression practice. She’s also a self-described “Liberation Superhero” (after this training, I would describe her that way, too). The training addressed the questions:
- What’s the difference between diversity, inclusion, and belonging?
- How does oppression impact people and environments?
- Why are people resistant?
- What are potential next steps for KFTC?
