And what about the elephant in the room when it comes to society and identity - class. In order to ensure that students from poor families have properly empathetic teachers, should be put quotas in place to increase the number of teachers who were raised in families with < 40K family income? Or raised by families with single-parents, or parents suffering from addictions? Which of the dozens of identities and social influences a person is subject to in their life do we enshrine with 'diversity' status?
