Albert Einstein once noted “Striving for social justice is the most valuable thing to do in life.” While America is no stranger to racial injustice; the recent tragic events demand we pay attention. We now realize it is impossible to stay silent on this most valuable thing to do in life. We can do better. No, we must do better.
People are coming together to take a stand and demand change. As technical professionals we have a unique opportunity to incorporate equitability into the built environment. We must ask ourselves, “How can design influence America’s future towards respect, equality, and fairness for all?”
Our core values prioritize the advancement of our communities. We now realize to truly build a legacy, we must commit to be a stronger partner and ally with our communities addressing inequalities.
Lamp Rynearson believes in the unity of all, sustainable communities for all, and equality for all. We acknowledge that we can do better. We hear you. We support you. We will work for a better future for everyone.
Take care of yourselves and each other,
