We believe Black Lives Matter.
We stand in solidarity with the fight against enduring, systemic racism, entrenched in our society.
We embrace the pain that we are feeling to motivate us to action, recognizing that what we are experiencing is incomprehensible to what is being felt by the black members of our architecture family and broader communities.
We acknowledge our failures in being contributors, that we will not always be perfect going forward, but it will not stop our work to design and build an equitable future for all.
We commit to being part of the change and providing resources for others to take similar actions.
Get uncomfortable, be BRAVE, be apart of the change.
Please join us,
Evelyn
