Allison Hill, CEO of the American Booksellers Association, sent a letter to members August 5, stating in part, “I wanted to share an update following my July 14 email about the incidents surrounding Blackout and Irreversible Damage and what we’ve been doing the past few weeks in response. We began with an investigation of the incidents and an audit of all ABA procedures and programs, and we listened to more than 100 members—those both directly and indirectly impacted—to help inform our plan as we move forward.”
