NEW YORK - TelAve -- Sharon J. Hill, Publicist for the Creators' Rights Movement (CRM), is proud to announce the launch of the movement's official newsletter, The CRM Chronicle, by Amanda Sherman. This launch marks a pivotal moment in the fight for creative justice as the organization kicks off a national campaign during Black History Month to advocate for Perpetual Copyright Reform.

A Foundation of Protection and Power

The Creators' Rights Movement was established as a proactive grassroots organization to serve creators across music, film, writing, and digital media. At its core, the movement believes that intellectual property is an asset and that creativity is labor deserving of ownership, not just exposure.

"Copyrights aren't just paperwork; they are protection, power, and legacy," states the movement's mission. CRM aims to eliminate the knowledge gap that leads creators—especially those historically exploited or underpaid—to sign away their rights through misunderstood contracts and industry loopholes.

The CRM Chronicle: Insights and the "Unsung"

Led by Editor Amanda Sherman, The CRM Chronicle will provide ongoing insights, policy updates, and creator spotlights. A primary focus of the newsletter is to highlight the "Unsung"—the myriad of legends and disenfranchised creators who were cheated out of their ownership rights by outdated laws and contract gaps.

The debut issue spotlights Ricky Abernathy, a former member of the iconic funk group Lakeside. Abernathy's journey serves as a reminder that talent alone is not enough; artists must be educated on their rights to protect their income and their legacy from industries that have long benefited from misinformation.

The Road to Perpetual Copyright

As of January 1, 2026, the movement highlights a modern crisis: while 95-year-old works like the early versions of Mickey Mouse enter the public domain, modern artists and their families continue to lose generational wealth under current expiration laws.

"Copyrights should not have an expiration date," the movement asserts. CRM is officially calling for a transition to Perpetual Copyright Law to prevent art from being treated as disposable and to ensure families do not lose their rightful income streams.
