SECOM's Statement on Racial Justice
August 2020
Today we reflect on the racial injustices and tragedies occurring across the country and in our own neighborhoods, and our hearts ache for our brothers and sisters, our Black Neighbors. As a community partner dedicated to providing help today and hope for tomorrow for all of our neighbors, it pains us to see the recent senseless deaths of Black men, women and children. Although SECOM has had a long-term commitment to addressing systemic racism, through consistent programming and relationship building, we also have much to learn. We fully acknowledge that much listening and learning is before us. As we witness both peaceful protests and violent acts, and become more aware of our own implicit bias, we are compelled to challenge ourselves to learn what we can and must do, to better listen, better uplift, and better serve our Black Neighbors with the goal of equity and equality for all. We know we do not have all the answers, but we commit to humbly seeking those answers and making important changes in order to be part of the healing so desperately needed in our world, our country, our city and our own neighborhood.
