B4U-ACT is collecting stories of scholars and helping professionals who have been censured for, or otherwise discouraged from, acting or speaking in defense of the humanity, dignity, or civil/human rights of minor-attracted persons (MAPs). If you have had a relevant experience or have felt that the current academic/professional environment has a chilling effect on your ability to act ethically or to speak up on this topic, we would like to hear about it. Your story can be as anonymous or public as you like.

If you are willing to help, please go to b4uact.org/injustice-profs/ for more information and to submit a description of your experience. Please forward this message to other professionals you feel might be able to assist in this endeavor, or post on professional email listservs if appropriate.
