Legal Question in Discrimination Law in Kentucky

Breastfeeding

Is there anything that can done about an employer humiliating me in front of a group of people at work because I pumped breast milk for my baby? I was called out in front of a lot of people and told that it was the most disgusting thing he had seen and that I was making him sick. I did not pump in front of him i was pouring the milk in bags in the breakroom.
