I'm very much a reader/lurker on this list, so I don't know much about
the bigger structures.
I'm very much in favor of a statement along these lines.
My question is about the teeth to it. When we look to who it will come
from, do they have the ability to kick offenders off the list, or some
other mechanism of response? Action seems to be needed now, and so in
addition to a statement, I'd like to see behavior contrary to the
statement having visible consequences. I think that'd add significance
to whatever statement appears.

So can we see the samples - LITA's and NMRT's? And I'm also wondering who

C4L's "organization" being such that it is.

(PS I live in California where our Senate President Pro Tem and Assembly
Speaker made a statement in regards to the US's current political
situation, and their statement kept me personally from TOTALLY losing it. I
believe a statement will make clear what otherwise might be an unknown for
some.)

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Post-election statement affirming diversity from
Code4Lib?
Hi Code4Libbers,
What do you think about issuing a post-election statement on diversity
basically affirming that we stand by it?
If that _IS_ the majority opinion in Code4Lib which I am _POSITIVE_ that
it is, then I want to hear it and I think others may well!
I just drafted one for LITA (to be out tomorrow hopefully). So I have some
wordings that I can offer as a starting point.
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Bohyun
