Hi Ben/Street Team,
Students Occupy Boston came up with a fairly elegant solution to this
problem when their Student GA coincided with the Oakland solidarity march.
They met at the scheduled time, and made their first agenda item, "Should
we cancel this meeting and join the rally?" They did end up deciding to
join the rally, but it was done by true consensus, and avoided the shaky,
awkward, half-consensus that tends to be reached in a couple hours of
e-mailing.
If the facilitator/group feels it's appropriate, we can put that on the
agenda for tonight, come to a quick decision, and move on from there. But
in the meantime, everyone please assume we're still meeting tonight at 5:00
(lacking consensus on Ben's proposal). And of course, don't let any of this
stop you from attending the rally anyway if you feel so moved.
-Eli
