VIVID Removes Board Member Following Conduct Violations

Washington, D.C. — The leadership of VIVID announces today that Parker is no longer affiliated with the organization in any official capacity. Effective immediately, Parker has been removed from the VIVID Board of Directors due to behavior deemed inconsistent with the values, expectations, and ethical standards of the activist movement.

VIVID remains unapologetically committed to equity, truth, and justice—guided by transparency, accountability, and the trust of the communities we serve. This decision was not made lightly, but it was necessary. We do not tolerate conduct that compromises our mission or the safety and integrity of this work.

We are not here to protect power—we are here to protect people. And we will always choose the movement over any one individual.
