Charles Brownstein has resigned after 18 years with the organization as the result of renewed pressure from the comic book industry surrounding a sexual assault from 2005
In a statement, the CBLDF board said, “The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund has accepted the resignation of Charles Brownstein as Executive Director, effective immediately.
”Our organization exists to serve the comics community and the First Amendment, and we can’t do that without an open and honest discourse. We believe our organization’s management and staff should be representative of and responsive to the community they serve. As we move forward, it will be with a renewed focus on accountability and transparency.
”We hear and understand the concerns of our community and recognize that this is only a first step in building greater trust and understanding regarding our mission and how it is carried out.” Brownstein had worked with the CBLDF since 2002. Beyond that position, he has also served as chair of the Banned Books Week Coalition, and as president of the Freedom-to-Read Foundation.SIGN UP!
