I am saddened to think that others are experiencing hurtful or bullying comments on this email list. :( Michelle On Mon, Nov 14, 2016 at 4:07 PM, Junior Tidal <jti...@citytech.cuny.edu> wrote: > I think that's a great idea. > > Best, > Junior > > >>> "Kim, Bohyun" <b...@hshsl.umaryland.edu> 11/14/16 4:05 PM >>> > 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).
