We are currently moving to bring one new member to the board. As a matter of principle we have always sought after a diverse board. Getting where Media Island has been coming from is essential as well. Control of media by large corporations is an issue that brings together all the issues which have driven us. The underreported news of forced relocation of 14 thousand Dineh (Navaho) families, the unreported statistics on high-level nuclear waste shipments, the deep corruption of "national security" and the numerous secret agencies it legitimizes. We also are compelled by the positive stories which are underreported, the energy solutions which aren't happening enough, agricultural approaches which are buried by corporate control of food, more inclusive definitions of "human rights".

If anyone is interested in serving on our board of directors they should let us know. We operate on consensus and our current by-laws allow up to 10 board members. Our meetings have historically been open to spokescouncil participants, house caretakers and people making proposals in person.
