Hi to the new list! My family and I attended an event organized by one of my kid's elementary school's equity and diversity committee; the speaker was a local writer, Ijeoma Oluo: https://geneseehilles.seattleschools.org/about/calendar_and_news/news/author_ijeoma_olou_coming_to_genesee_hill She said she does consulting at tech firms in Seattle and that she'd be open to talking with groups here at the ASF. If there's interest I can include anyone who wants to join a phone call. I got the impression she could help with how to approach topics and execute on things in a constructive way, and she'd be a great addition to any D&I track. Let me know if you or anyone you know would like to speak with her on a call. I've reached out for an initial chat, will keep the list posted. Best Andrew
