Working Definition ¡"Oppression" refers to a social dynamic in which certain ways of being in this world--including certain ways of identifying or being identified--are normalized or privileged while other ways are disadvantaged or marginalized. Forms of oppression include racism, classism, sexism, heterosexism, anti-Semitism, ablism, colonialism, and other "isms. " Anti-oppressive work aims to challenge multiple forms of oppression. ¡

Politically Correct or Just How We Do Business ¡Does your workplace have anti-discrimination or antiharassment policies? ¡Does your workplace offer training on human rights issues such as sexism/racism in order to ensure a harassment-free, inclusive workplace? ¡Would you be uncomfortable working with someone who was gay, lesbian, or bisexual? ¡Has anyone in your workplace ever experienced personal harassment or violence as a result of their sexual orientation?
When significant others are invited to work-related social events, how are the invitations written/spoken? When getting to know a new employee, are you sensitive to the possibility that they may be gay, lesbian, or bisexual by asking questions about their personal life that are inclusive (i. e. , questions that do not apply exclusively to heterosexuals)? Are jokes about lesbians, gays, or bisexuals accepted at your workplace as just another way of releasing tension and having fun? Does your benefit package acknowledge same-sex relationships? (Heterosexism Enquirer Magazine, 2000)
