I am pleased to see you here.
I think personally that 90% of the angry rhetoric that passes between people in general is due to a sense of being attacked and often it is not intended but just reflects an ability to see beyond our own perspective.

I think our group can only be enhanced by the addition of your perspective. I really like the way you interact and I look forward to sharing with you and learning from you as well.

I think that most of us here also are for equality. We all seem to agree on that but, given our different experiences and perspectives, we have different opinions about the types of inequities that exist out there. I agree that often the goals complement each other and we need to avoid the mechanism in which one side's expression of inequity is perceived as an attack on the other side.
