Black Lives Matter. Lane Powell condemns racism, hate, and discrimination, and reaffirms its commitment to advance equity, inclusion, and access to justice.
Silence at this time is unacceptable: our profession’s purpose and ideals require us to identify institutions that perpetuate racism and to work to change them. As a society, we have far to go to end racism, but together, we can ask questions, listen, reflect, and hold ourselves accountable as we work for a just and fair community. Lane Powell commits to do the work to bring necessary and overdue change to dismantle systemic racial inequity, ensure equal protection under the law, and secure access to justice.
We recognize the pain the Black community is feeling right now. We kneel with you and we stand with you.
