Thank you Bill, for your post.
I asked the questions I did becuase of the initial information put out to to the
community via this list. Since it was put out there, and the A.A. community seems to
allow only a handful of individuals to speak for it, I wanted to know, and still do,
if he is doing his job on behalf of the community according to his employer's job
description, or has he veered off into his own thing.
We, meaning the community, get so up in arms about so much that I wanted to see
whether or not it was even our business to jump up and down about his lost wages.
I get the distinct feeling that people, of all races, are truly scared to talk openly,
and that is a big problem in the community. If this whole thing is not a big deal,
say so. If everything is okey dokey, great! If not, what do people have against
making people, even so called leaders, be accountable? True, we don't do the hiring
and firing of organizations, however, if they are there to serve specific needs and
are given funds to do so on behalf of certain populations, and they are falling short,
things need to be examined under a microscope, not hidden under self agendas (again,
IF that be the case). Especially by those certain populations. Otherwise, folks are
just collecting money and using you to do it, and you are letting it happen. And, IF
that be the case and no one says anything, don't bring us your belly-wailing later.
C'mon all you normally vocal listmembers. Quit holding your tongues. I know you are
chomping at the bit so let yourselves be real.
