Attitudes are changing just like our society is changing. We don't often see blatant acts of discrimination. Most likely, it is subtle, not openly intentional, but it is there, and we must continue to work diligently to eradicate it.
Be passionate about diversity and do your part in transforming our communities to be inclusive and just-- through institutional change and empowering yourself and becoming leaders.
Fight bias, bigotry and racism in America. Act as a role model. Take action when appropriate and address behaviors when important. Never be afraid to take risks.
See differences as positives, and consider them to be smart, talented, or possessing traits, skills or attitudes you value. Taking risks are a huge part and always keep an open mind.
Always respect everyone that you encounter in your life and in the workplace.

Great recap of the situation. I agree everyone should be judged on their skills, talents and abilities not their gender, race, religion etc.. With that said, I also don't think people should get a leg up, just because of their gender, race, religion etc..
