Capital Pride Threatens Former VOLUNTEER Photographer of FIVE YEARS with 'legal redress'

8/17/2022

Ashley...  I don't care.  Were you or Ryan on CasaRuby board too?  You're governing Capital Pride like you were.

First Is this an attempt to shut me up?  Legal redress?  Afraid for the HIV community to hear how a sponsor chugging suck up to Wegmans but not the grocery desert in Southeast its new soon to open grocery store LIDL - Skyland Town Center. Ask your buddies at Cherry I don't shut up and won't give up - remember I'm speaking out about an injustice.

Second, the Cherry Fund lists you all over their website and taxes as a grant, so who's not being truthful?  Is it a grant if so what have you used the money (why did it increase to the largest contribution two years in a row?) for or it part of a revenue sharing agreement (which I'd love if for transparency if you'd release it) 

Third as a good community steward you should have demanded public review years ago when I first came to you asking for help, they were not responding to my inquiry for sure they would someone as big as Capital Pride.  You went on year after year knowing they were not making their tax returns available for public review and you overlooked it weighing your relationship with the never changing board over public interest.

Fourth, I demand an apology for refusing The Advocate Magazine along with Metro Weekly my media credentials ultimately affecting my revenue for my business.  After giving so much in services over the years the fact you'd deny my employment all because I was alarming the community of monies you should have never agreed to accept. 

Fifth, Ryan should be fired and Ashley should resign or immediately replaced.  If the Cherry Fund ultimately dismantles, you both should know you are part responsible for it.  As good community stewards when asked by my you should have supported my efforts if not for the sakes of all I have done but for the HIV/AIDS community.

Sixth, take your threats and shove them I got nothing anyway I do have a first amendment to speak out about your actions.  Boards are vital, just ask the folks at Casa Ruby, or the lack of one over at the Cherry Fund.

Seventh, your list of sponsors are next starting with MGM I've got lots of photos and videos that I'm sure they would rather have no mention in for future postings and press releases.

Lastly among all of this you continue to publish my photos as you were denying my credentials you were posting my photos WITH NO PHOTO credit.  STOP USING MY PHOTOS.  You do not deserve the right to use them.
