Description

Call Recording: KNN hosts bi-monthly discussions on the diversity, intersectionality, and inclusion issues facing the sector. These calls, held every other week, are an important opportunity to connect with your colleagues facing similar challenges and opportunities, learn from one another's experiences, share ideas and best practices, and more.

This session will be led by OJ Oleka, PhD, president of the Association of Independent Kentucky Colleges and Universities (AIKCU).  Dr. Oleka will discuss how historical government policies around institutional racism, while outlawed today, are still having an outsized impact on the economic, educational, and life outcomes for Black Kentuckians. Dr. Oleka will discuss the work that AIKCU institutions are doing in higher education on this issue, as well as the policy initiatives of AntiRacismKY, a coalition he co-founded to help end any vestige of institutional racism in Kentucky state and local government policies.
