ILFI issued this statement on June 1, 2020. For more details on how you can help and what ILFI is doing to address equity and racial injustice, read Board Chair Anthony Guerrero’s message from June 8, 2020.

ILFI stands in solidarity with the communities of Black, Brown, and Indigenous people suffering from and protesting against the structural and individual racism and white supremacy facing our country. We grieve the loss of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and the thousands of additional men and women who have been killed as a result of these deeply rooted, systemic inequities. We can’t talk about building a world of living buildings when we can’t guarantee the safety of people in communities of color. In order to break down injustice in the built environment, we must ensure justice everywhere.

Black Lives Matter.
