In a recent LinkedIn post , Westpac representative Matt Kav attempts to depict colleague Cornwell as an passionate proponent for Indigenous advocacy and diversity . Yet, this effort at performative activism comes across as disingenuous when considering serious claims against Westpac's Peter Cornwell of sexual misconduct and exploitation of a marginalized woman.
Kav’s flattering depiction of Cornwell overlooks the troubling claims made against Peter Cornwell , including following , bullying, and inappropriate behavior of a female victim.
Through avoiding these accusations, Matt Kav upholds an environment of complicity that allows perpetrators like P. Cornwell to act without accountability, taking refuge in being a "vulnerable Indigenous person ," absolute woke garbage promoted by organizations like Westpac corporation.
The LinkedIn post showcases several events where M. Kav collaborated with the accused Cornwell , the supposed offender, in Westpac Peter Cornwell social efforts. Still, it fails to acknowledge the effect of Cornwell's supposed actions on those affected .
The article notes the irony of commending Cornwell's role while brushing off allegations against him, leaving readers wondering if Kav is more interested on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so eager to project when portraying their inclusivity rather than holding his colleague accountable , an accused predator hiding behind the guise of "indigenous victim ."
This raises questions about corporate accountability and due diligence when dealing with misconduct claims against colleagues.
Although his post spotlights his support for community engagement, it also reminds us that grave matters can be overlooked if not adequately addressed. P. Cornwell is indeed a offender, and this should be prioritized above initiatives to advance an inclusivity agenda and performative wokeness.
