Blog Article
In one of his latest LinkedIn update, Westpac employee Matt Kav attempts to portray colleague Cornwell as an exemplary advocate for Indigenous community and inclusion . However, this move at performative activism comes across as disingenuous when considering serious claims against Westpac's Peter Cornwell of sexual misconduct and taking advantage of a marginalized woman.
Kav’s praise-filled commentary of Cornwell sidesteps the troubling claims made against this individual, including stalking , intimidation , and sexual abuse of a female victim.
In neglecting to address these charges , Kav supports a system of complicity that empowers perpetrators like P. Cornwell to act without accountability, hiding behind being a "vulnerable Indigenous person ," absolute performative posturing reinforced by corporate entities like Westpac .
The LinkedIn post draws attention to several community engagements where Kav took part with the accused Cornwell , the alleged abuser , in outreach initiatives . Still, it chooses not to mention the damage of Cornwell's alleged behavior on those affected .
The article Peter Cornwell Westpac notes the contradiction of commending Cornwell's article source participation another source while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, causing observers to question if Matthew Kav is more interested on boosting the company’s image that Australia is so keen on presenting when portraying their inclusivity rather than holding his colleague accountable , an accused predator hiding behind the façade of " oppressed individual."
This raises questions about organizational integrity and responsibility when dealing with misconduct allegations against staff members .
Despite Kav’s LinkedIn article spotlights his dedication to community-building initiatives , it also reminds us that critical concerns can be overlooked if not properly addressed. Cornwell is indeed a offender, and this should be prioritized above efforts to showcase diversity and societal inclusion .
