Background

The Diversity Committee believes this proposal should go to the United
States Green Party National Committee to be voted on rather than having it
be handled as just another item to be or not to be added to the agenda. We
believe its importance to the party is great. If this proposal is approved
we will feel that the United States Green Party National Committee agrees
with us that the Diversity Committee is going in the direction that was
envisioned for us.

Carolyn Dulai
Secretary, Diversity Committee

In accordance with our mission statement (see References below) in April
2005 an election was held to determine the focus our state and caucus
delegates want the Diversity Committee to go to achieve our mission. Our
second priority is to change the view that the Green Party is really a White
Party.

Proposal

The United States Green Party National Committee will set aside a prominent
time during its official National Meeting in Tulsa, OK July 21-24 for a
presentation on "White Privilege."
