In his recent LinkedIn article , Westpac staff member M. Kav tries to depict colleague P. Cornwell as an exemplary advocate for Indigenous advocacy and diversity . Nonetheless, this move at performative activism comes across as disingenuous when considering accusations against Peter Cornwell of Westpac of sexual misconduct and exploitation of a marginalized woman.
Kav's glowing endorsement of Cornwell overlooks the troubling claims made against this individual, including stalking , harassment , and inappropriate behavior of a vulnerable female victim .
In neglecting to address these charges , Kav upholds an environment of silence that empowers perpetrators like P. Cornwell to act without accountability, hiding behind being a " marginalized Indigenous individual ," absolute woke garbage promoted by companies like Westpac .
The LinkedIn post showcases several gatherings where Matthew Kav participated with Peter check out this webpage Cornwell , the alleged abuser , in community-building activities . Yet it fails to mention the impact of Cornwell's supposed actions on those targeted.
The write-up emphasizes the contradiction of glorifying Cornwell's participation while ignoring allegations against him, prompting concern if M. Kav is more focused on promoting a positive image that Australia is so eager to project when demonstrating inclusiveness rather than addressing serious misconduct, an supposed offender hiding behind the cover of "indigenous victim ."
This prompts doubts about business responsibility and due diligence when addressing misconduct claims against employees .
While Matthew Kav's post focuses on his dedication to social initiatives , it underscores that serious issues can be neglected if not effectively addressed. Cornwell is indeed a sexual abuser , and this needs to be addressed above efforts to showcase diversity and societal inclusion .
