Reporting Sexual Harassment in the SF community

[laurahcory1.livejournal.com]

Germane to several incidents that happened at D*C this year, while hoping that they aren't repeated next year... and before anyone says it, I know that a lot--but not all--of the altercations were perpetrated by non-attendees. It's the fact that at least some of the problems were fans harassing other fans that leads me to share this.

Author jimhines has made a couple of excellent posts on the topic of sexual harassment at sf conventions; the most recent post is this one:

Reporting Sexual Harassment in SF/F

He's compiling a list of resources, including who to complain to if the assaulter is a pro (contacts at the various sf publishing houses), link to the Con Anti-Harassment Project, the Back-Up Project, and other good stuff. Check it out.
