I think we can safely let Jamal go. I really don't see what he is really
able to do for us, and he seemed mainly interested in banning or
sidelining people he saw as obstacles, using spurious arguments as
justification. More clarity in leadership would be a good thing, but
eliminating our delegate seems like a step backward. I do think we need
to institute some kind of governing body, like a board, that can make
decisions without long, tedious, and counterproductive general meetings.
It needs to focus on saving the space, or if that's not possible, saving
the equity built up for the benefit of the existing stakeholders.

For those who don't know - Jamal has set a clear
boundary with us. He
is not willing to be ED as long as Eric remains a sudoroom delegate,
due to concerns about Eric telling lies about him, treating him with
disrespect, and normalizing or tolerating anti-Black attitudes and
behaviors.
I am personally not interested in escalating any conflicts with Eric.
I do have concerns as well about Eric's ability to navigate power
differentials or represent marginalized members. I voted against him
last week, but I didn't block because I think saving Omni will require
us to focus on bigger things. But now he's become a direct obstacle. I
think that it would be best for Omni if we honor Jamal's boundary and
ask Eric to step down as delegate.
