         <description><![CDATA[<div>I'm also wondering about members of the Inclusion Committee doing some educating within their school buildings around all three affinity groups. Within my own school I have had to do a lot of teaching around pronouns/gender identify, anti-racism work, etc to my fellow staff members. I just wonder if we would ever want to think about doing some teaching to our peers more formally. I know this is a huge thought. I'm just making sure I bring it up :)</div>]]></description>
