Standing in Solidarity - Black Lives Matter
The recent events that have unfolded across the U.S over the past few weeks have demonstrated that despite many years of progress in advancing civil rights, we still have significant work ahead of us in order to achieve true racial equality within our society. Overcome with emotion and with a sad and heavy heart, America watched this week as another victim was laid to rest, a true testament to the work that still remains. We stand in solidarity with George Floyd’s family, and those of BreonnaTaylor, Ahmaud Arbery and others, in hopes that their tragic deaths will result in real transformative change.
As the CEO of Hudson and alongside our executive leadership, Hudson and its team members remain united in our support of the Black Lives Matter movement in calling for sustainable and long-term transformation in our communities. As a company that works hard to foster equality within our organization and the communities we serve, we understand that this is no easy task, and that we don’t always have the right answers – it requires education, commitment, understanding, and a willingness to take a proactive role in bringing about accountability and change.
Hudson and its team members remain unwavering in our support of the efforts and movements which help bring about real change to combat systemic racism and all other societal injustices including prejudice and intolerance. We remain committed within our industry, our communities, and our company to do our part in these efforts in alignment with our core values.
Thank you.
Roger Fordyce, Chief Executive Officer
