#dearpublishers please link to @bookshop_org_UK instead of Amazon during #IndieBookshopWeek and beyond!
A few booksellers have signed a letter asking publishers to link to indies (or bookshop org) to show their support for us this #IndieBookshopWeek

#DearPublishers #PublishingIndustry #DiversityandInclusion
When any company or individual makes a public statement of solidarity and promises to do better, we expect them to do exactly that.
#DearPublishers #Publishing @simonschuster @HachetteUS @penguinrandom @HarperCollins @MacmillanUSA
For example, the expectation to be treated like a human and valued for our input; to have our existence respected, and, in return, our dedication of time and effort to the company.

A 2018 study conducted by @Deloitte found similar results. The report goes on to show that “inclusive leaders cast a long shadow” - demonstrating that top down inclusive leadership is key to solidifying psychological contracts between employers & employees.

Send an email to the Big 5 right now:

Demand the big 5 publishers to publicly release their workplace demographic data.
#DearPublishers #Publishing #Publishers
(5/6) Time & time again, the publishing industry has chosen profit over their public social commitments. For the sake of publishing employees, authors, & all readers, the publishing industry must be held accountable, and that includes with its hiring practices.
#DearPublishers
(4/6) What would such a report look like?
Both @LEEandLOW's Diversity in Publishing report and @penguinrandom's workplace demographic databases are by no means definitive nor exhaustive, but they are good places to start.
#DearPublishers #Publishing #Publishers
(3/6) Why is workplace demographic data important?
Not only is this data needed so we can hold the Big 5 accountable to their commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion, but also to ensure they are building equitable workplaces.
#DearPublishers #Publishing #Publishers
(2/6) Out of the Big 5, @penguinrandom is the only publisher that has publicly released workplace demographic data. @HachetteBooks, @HarperCollins, @simonschuster, and @MacmillanUSA have not publicly released this data.

Given Simon & Schuster’s ongoing racist practices, what is on top of mind and heart for you?

Did that work? The CEO said no.
Citing “inherently subjective” judgement, and a desire for “new information and perspectives”, S&S refuses to discontinue the Mike Pence deal and their contract with PHP remains.
@simonschuster #DearPublishers #SimonAndSchuster
“This compromises the safety of ALL BIPOC, women, LGBTQ+, disabled, neurodivergent, immigrant, and working class employees and contributes to generations of oppressive violence.”
- S&S Employee Petition
@SimonSchuster #SimonAndSchuster #DearPublishers #Petition
In response to S&S’s performative actions and contribution to bigotry:
1) @DearPublishers was formed.
2) S&S employees created a petition demanding change.
#DearPublishers #Publishing #Publishers #SimonAndSchuster
Did that last? No.
S&S announced a book deal with Mike Pence. Then S&S distribution client @PostHillPress announced a book deal with one of Breonna Taylor’s murderers. That distribution relationship still stands.

We are in solidarity with the Simon & Schuster workforce.

It is necessary to hold publishing houses accountable to change. We will be rolling out various ways in which you can help us take action. Every week we will be tackling different issues within publishing and ways in which you can help us amplify our message.
#DearPublishers
We stand in solidarity with the employees of @simonschuster demanding change. We demand that publishers become transparent in their practices. We demand accountability for the companies that, less than a year ago, pledged to “stand against racism and violence." #DearPublishers
