Filsan Talent Partners wants to take the time today to acknowledge the senseless death of Daunte Wright at the hands of law enforcement, a serious miscarriage of justice. It is a great tragedy for his family, friends, and the community that held him dear. These deaths in Minnesota and around the country are stark reminders of the risks and fear that black and brown Americans live among every day.
Filsan Talent Partners recommits ourselves to the critical work on unconscious bias, which remains a common factor in the deaths of these black and brown men and women at the hands of law enforcement. Unconscious bias exists more extensively in numerous sectors across society than many realize, affecting the lives of diverse Americans in adverse ways from loss of job opportunities to loss of life.
