Cultural Sensitivity Policy
The Indigenous Comic Con is a positive, family oriented event that celebrates Indigenous pop culture. As such, cosplay that can be interpreted as culturally disrespectful by any of the attendees or guests will be asked to be removed. We wish to ensure a positive experience for everyone and we thank you for your consideration.
Anti-Harrassment Policy
The harassment policy applies to any individual attending the Indigenous Comic Con, including guests, exhibitors, staff, attendees, etc.
The Indigenous Comic Con is a safe space. This means we expect it to be a safe environment for fans from any ethnicity, creed, religious background, political background, gender, gender identity, sexual identity, sexual orientation, fandom, etc. We do not tolerate harassment in any form. This includes, but is not limited to: physical assault, verbal harassment, sexual harassment, stalking, unwanted physical contact, unwanted advances, or inappropriate media capture. (Inappropriate media capture is defined as photography, video, audio, or some other form of recording where the subject feels they are being stalked, exploited, degraded, or disrespected through being recorded. People are allowed to document the convention through media capture as long as no one feels they are being harassed.)
Harassment is defined by the victim.
“No” means no. “Stop” means stop. “Go away” means go away.
If it is determined – either by observation or by complaint – that an individual or group has harassed another attendee, any or all of the following things may occur –
That individual or group may be:
-
Warned to cease and desist;
-
Asked to leave the convention, or;
-
Banned from the convention for a period of time to be determined by staff.
To report harassment please find the nearest Indigenous Comic Con volunteer or security personnel. They will direct you to an information desk or security center. If you feel your safety or the safety of others is in jeopardy please contact the Albuquerque Police Department at 911 if an emergency. The Albuquerque Police Department non-emergency number is 505-242-2677.
For your own safety, if you feel that you are being harassed in a non-emergency situation please report your problems to us before anyone else. If you cannot find a staff, crew, or volunteer member to assist you, please go to the information desks located near registration or just inside the entrance of the exhibition floor. Please report to us before taking matters into your own hands (such as personally confronting the aggressor or posting on social media). We have professional security and they are properly equipped for these contingencies.
