+1 D&I is a foundational level initiative. It should undergo the same scrutiny as all other foundational level initiatives. Public statements from all officers go through our existing channels, via Sally and on existing channels, or her delegate, which could be VP D&I if that individual knows how to manage press (I don't know Gris' background here so don't read anything into that, it's merely an observation).
Individuals are, of course, free to use their own channels to help in whatever way pleases them as individuals.
