Executive Director Joel D. Corcoran released a statement addressing the ongoing issues of racism and social injustice in our society, saying: "We are disappointed and concerned whenever we learn about intolerance or hate in any form. We are saddened by and stand in opposition to racism, antisemitism, xenophobia, discrimination of religious beliefs and sexual-orientation, and the many other forms of bigotry and social exclusion towards minorities, people of different abilities, and cultural differences."
