But would you expect a cohousing association to rent space in a KKK building or 
purchase stolen goods or buy appliances from proven polluters?

I think it is too late for the conference to move and I think the board is now 
alerted to these issues so it won't happen again, but the issue is still worth 
discussing because it is educational. People are sorting out their values by 
participating in it.
