Just to nip any confusion in the bud (since this came up a couple weeks ago): My name is Herschel, I am not the author of the OP. I spent two years at the Monastic Academy, and have been around the rationalist community since ~2017. [edited to remove the author's legal name, at their request]

Hierarchical and inequitable power structures that reflect along lines of class, race, ability, and gender (often unconsciously) creating and perpetuating longstanding patterns of harm, inequitable access and opportunity, power imbalances, and abuses of power, etc.
That seems to be a quite big claim. What evidence do you have for it being true?
For this reason, many organizations have started to shift towards collaborative and decentralized models of leadership, and focused education and training in anti-oppression models are essential.
Is there any evidence that such training reduces abuses of power?
