Minneapolis, MN — Jun 4, 2020 — /BackupReview.info/ — Code42, the leader in insider risk detection, investigation and response, releases the following statement addressing the issue of racism and systemic inequities.
“At Code42, we are heartbroken over another senseless death of an unarmed person of color at the hands of law enforcement. As a society, we must acknowledge the daily and systemic racism that black people have experienced in America for almost 400 years. To stay silent is to be complicit. We want to engage in the conversation and hear the voices from people of color, women, the LGBTQ community and people of all beliefs. At Code42, we are committed to a regular dialogue with these communities.
“As many protesters have impassionedly stated, we need meaningful, systemic change. This crisis gives us the determination to try harder and take action now.”
In addition to lending our voice to those directly affected by racism, Code42 plans to take the following steps:
“While this isn’t an exhaustive list, we can hold ourselves accountable and measure against these initial commitments over the next year. At Code42, we believe in the relentless pursuit of better in all that we do — so expect us to demand more from our company and ourselves as time passes. We are committed to leaving the world a better place.”
