Detroit Fanfare Posts Their Harassment Policy
It's become a thing of late. Comic book conventions and their harassment policies. I've been a victim of such myself and, as a foreigner in the USA, literally not actually knowing what I could do about it. So I just didn't.
Detroit Fanfare Comic Con has decided to make their policy rather public.
The primary concerns of the promoters, staff, and volunteers of Detroit Fanfare Comic Con is the safety, security, and enjoyment of all patrons, guests, and vendors present. If you feel you have been the victim of any form of harassment (sexual or non-sexual), we want to know about it immediately.
During Convention Floor Hours:
If you feel you have been the victim of any form of harassment (verbal or nonverbal), immediately proceed to the Registration Desk, Bazaar Registration Desk, or the convention merchandise desk. Upon reporting the incident at one of these locations, at least one of the three Detroit Fanfare Comic Con promoters will be contacted along with security. A description of the event and of the person or persons involved will be taken. Appropriate measures to be taken will be decided with you on the spot.
After Convention Floor Hours:
If you feel you have been the victim of any form of harassment after the convention show floor has closed, proceed to any hotel phone and ask to be connected to hotel security. You can also proceed to the hotel front desk to have hotel security notified as well. At least one of the three Detroit Fanfare Comic Con promoters will be contacted. A description of the event and of the person or persons involved will be taken. Appropriate measure to be taken will be decided with you on the spot.
Appropriate measures for any type of harassment may involve the removal of the accused harasser from the premises and/or the notification of the Dearborn Police Department.
Detroit Fanfare also host the Shel Dorf Awards. Oh look, I'm up for one… voting ends tomorrow.
