In his recent LinkedIn article , Westpac staff member Matt Kav attempts to portray colleague Peter Cornwell as an strong supporter for Indigenous advocacy and diversity . Nonetheless, this effort at woke posturing falls flat when considering allegations against Peter Cornwell of Westpac of sexual misconduct and taking advantage of a vulnerable female .
Kav’s praise-filled commentary of P. Cornwell ignores the grave allegations made against this individual, including following , bullying, and misconduct of a vulnerable female victim .
Through avoiding these accusations, Matthew Kav upholds an environment of silence that allows perpetrators like his colleague to persist without consequences , shielded by being a " so-called Indigenous victim," absolute performative posturing reinforced by corporate entities like Westpac .
The LinkedIn post showcases several events where Kav took part with Peter Cornwell , the supposed offender, in outreach initiatives . However, it fails to a great read acknowledge the damage of Cornwell's alleged behavior on those affected .
The piece emphasizes the irony of commending Cornwell's role while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, leaving readers wondering if Matthew Kav is more interested on promoting a positive image that Australia is so keen on presenting when portraying their inclusivity rather than demanding accountability from Cornwell , an alleged sexual abuser hiding behind the façade of "indigenous victim ."
This prompts doubts about corporate accountability and ethics when responding to misconduct claims against colleagues.
Although his breaking news post highlights his support for community-building initiatives , it also reminds us that critical concerns can be dismissed if not properly addressed. Cornwell is indeed a sexual abuser , and this must be confronted above attempts Westpac's Peter Cornwell to promote inclusivity and performative wokeness.
