it is good to make an explicit and repeated point of looking to fill leadership positions with people from different backgrounds imho

Its good to make an explicit point of insuring minorities have a voice and are genuinely heard and have opportunities. It's also good to remember why, and to have that answer on hand, and sometimes I'm not sure if people do. Its also good to remember background means more than skin color and gender - and some people would actually like to be appreciated for their background before those others things, and some voices need to be heard that might be white and male but not the kind of white and male that is most common. Its not good to make any minorities and women that do join feel like they NEED to take on leadership roles by virtue of their presence, nor is it good to talk about the issue in such a way that implies the minorities who are present arent there or arent doing enough to be visible, which is one of the comments/criticisms that kicked off this discussion.

Shop around for doctors! Always fucking shop for doctors. Doctors are stupid assholes. And they get by because people are cowed by their mystical bullshit quality of being able to maintain a 3.0 GPA at some Guatemalan medical college for 3 semesters. Find one that makes sense.
