Posted by Shruti Sharma, Chair, NTC Diversity & Inclusion Committee.

We at the NTC value and cherish diversity in all its forms. We want to take this opportunity to make our position clear about the recent events:

The status quo is unacceptable.

We stand in solidarity with the #Black members of our community. We vow to listen and to understand.

We hear you and we see you. We are here for you.

We commit to be better and do better as a community and as individuals. We encourage our member organizations and their employees to commit to change with us to build an equitable “new normal,” together.
