NPG Commissioner Resigns; Integrity Not Dead at Smithsonian

ARTINFO.com is reporting that one of the National Portrait Gallery's commissioners (equivalent to a trustee or director) resigned in protest of the Smithsonian's decision to censor art after a smear campaign by anti gay forces.

I applaud James T. Bartlett's decision to stand up for free speech and resign his post. It's just sad that it had to happen.
