When it comes to Neil Gaiman, “the silence, and its impact, is not acceptable.” Thank you, @clarionwest.bsky.socialwww.clarionwest.org/2024/08/07/s...
Allegations against Neil Gaiman and time for the SFF community to have a critical conversation about sexual harassment and violence.
It's a very safe statement (which is fine, there's very little else that needs to be said officially by anyone at the moment). All the sadder that they're so far the only org in the genre to issue any statement at all so far.
There needs to be so much more of this. He's getting a "Polanski pass" at present and that's bullshit
I'm still hoping against all odds that other authors and institutions are still in shock and that's why the silence. But I sadly worry my optimism is unfounded.
Oh good.
