A STATEMENT FROM BFA IN SUPPORT OF THE PROTESTERS
Subject: We Stand in Support of Equity and Justice
BFA recognizes and fully supports the millions of protesters in the streets of US cities and those in solidarity from around the world. As an African-American owned environmental engineering, scientific consulting and survey services firm we have always aggressively fought for equity and justice from an Economic and Environmental Justice (EJ) perspective. However, we clearly recognize that the EJ movement is inextricably linked to the same systemic racism that has resulted in the murder of George Floyd by the police who are sworn to protect us.
BFA and Limitless Vistas (our STEM workforce development partner) will both redouble our efforts to push back against systemic racism in all its forms as we develop programs, implement projects and otherwise engage our clients, employees and the larger community we serve.
Looking Forward,
Patrick A. B. Barnes, P.G.
