"At the Intersection: Race, Sexuality, and Gender," a  comprehensive report released this week by the The Human Rights Campaign  Foundation, is an excellent look at some the third rails of cultural discussion  that usually results in most conversations falling into silence for fear of  conflict, offending someone, or having to realize one's own biases in front of  others.'

One cannot develop cultural competency if the conversation is encouraged, but  not taken in by those who need to listen and absorb the information to break  down barriers. We saw the schism in the last election.
