[Colin Bennett]

I responded to this thread at least a week ago expressing interest in serving on the Diversity Committee but I never received a response. Does that mean my services are not required?

As someone who has worked on several national committees in the past, I feel I must point out that mere interest is insufficient, and hard work is mandatory. Most committees meet by conference calls and portion out work assignments which are then followed up by email and conference call. If you request to be assigned to a committee you must be willing to put considerable time, effort, and energy and commitment into it, because slackers who only wish to push their own personal agenda just drag down the committees and nothing gets done, so they end up dragging the committee down, the national party down, and the state party they are from. In my experience it would be difficult to be a committee representative for more than one committee, at the most three. Obviously some committees require much more time. Finally, I believe it is important to select representatives who have a proven track record of working well with others, as well as an ability to communicate well, and who
 understand the power of consensus decision-making. This is especially true because there are so many more varied view points from across the country within all the different state green parties than just within our small state party. For example, several western state party representatives at the Platform Committee meetings several years back were very concerned about the language regarding gun control as they have a very different outlook re: guns than committee reps from other parts of the country. It is fascinating to work closely with reps from around the country, and very rewarding, but it is not frivolous.
