Where was the Color at A16 in D.C.?

[John Kawakami]

I just participated in the diversity meeting for the la indymedia, 
and I think: 1) at a previous meeting, I criticized the left for 
being trendy, using somewhat abrasive language, and I think I 
alienated some people -- and if any of you see this, I'm sorry, but 
only a little 2) the young left is very polite and politically 
correct and concerned with expressing themselves gently (unless 
they're on this list) but I am not.  3) it's a little awkward to host 
a diversity meeting the same night as the Lakers and Pacers are 
playing!

Regardless, we did plan to make another meeting (yeah, another one) 
to get down to brass tacks.  I'm proud to say that I suggested that 
the "diversity mission statement" be originally composed  as poetry, 
and then reduced to prose.  Heh heh.
