OutServe/SLDN Executive Director Allyson Robinson was fired after a board coup yesterday according to a leaked email sent to Bilerico Project. allyson-robinson-1.jpgRobinson was the only transgender leader of a major LGBT organization that is not specifically trans-related.
The organization's entire senior staff quit immediately following the board vote. Director of External Engagement Zeke Stokes, Director of Chapter and Member Services Gary Espinas, and David McKean, Legal and Public Policy Director, have all resigned in protest of Robinson's termination.
So far two board members have also resigned over Robinson's firing. Other board member resignations are expected later today.
