The senseless deaths of George Floyd and countless other Black people serve as painful reminders of the racial injustice that continues to impact communities throughout the world.
Racial violence and discrimination in any form is intolerable, and while the challenges remain steep, we must redouble our efforts to bring about meaningful change. Not just in times of adversity, but every single day – and most especially when no one is watching.
We recognize that a social media post is not enough, and we have much further to go to turn our solidarity into action. But silence is not an option. To our Black team members, guests, residents, communities, and anyone affected by injustice around the world – we stand with you.
We cannot change the prejudice of the past, but we can determine the future. Now, more than ever, the Golden Rule – treating others with the same respect we would want for ourselves – must guide us forward.
