Episode Highlights:

02:33 - People are so resistant and we live in such a highly politicized environment now, where the very term "diversity" is now political and politicized, and it drives me nuts. And my focus is on respect, which is at the core of everything we do here. And if we can help folks understand how important respect is, regardless of who you are. If I treat you in a way that you consider respectful, that's likely to turn out to be a good thing.
