Someone from the outside noticed that our spokespeople are disproportionately white. We are sensitive to the implications of that so we form this committee to address the problem. The committee, typically, is a very diverse group in terms of race, gender, age, position in the organization, etc. The group is trying to analyze the problem. I'm part of this committee.

Part of the problem is that some people assume that having people from one race, or ethnic group or religon or whatever disprotionately represented means that some one is being discriminated against unfairly. This is not necessarily true, but saying it is not true is not always an acceptable answer politically.
