This is by no means comprehensive.

I administered and moderated an anti-racist education network with a handful of other educators that numbered over 250k members for some years. During that time, I started writing down behaviours – and finding definitions for these. I created a list. It’s grown to be something I feel comfortable in releasing as a public tool.

In this list, the examples have been drawn around primarily workplace, and then also interpersonal and other relational behaviours.

Please do keep in mind that the behaviours listed are not ones that are meant to define a person in conflict but can instead label power and domination in conflict. Being able to name, and address these behaviours can be weaponised but the list itself was created as a tool for unpacking these, and moving beyond them.

There is an entire list that I have been tracking colonial dominances that isn’t included in this document. That other list pertains especially to Indigenous communities facing the imbalance in power by colonial structures, and I will release them when I have a more fulsome list of named behaviours and definitions.

I would love to hear how you use this list. Please comment on this post if you do, or plan to use this in some way. I love to know how the tools I put into the public domain for free are employed.
