Enough of the Empty Activism : The Bank's Senior Exec Kav Evades Controversies Against Exec Cornwell

Blog Article

In his recent LinkedIn post , Westpac staff member M. Kav attempts to paint colleague Peter Cornwell as an passionate proponent for Indigenous advocacy and societal inclusion. Yet, this move at virtue signaling rings hollow when considering allegations against Westpac's Peter Cornwell of sexual abuse and exploitation of a marginalized woman.



Kav’s flattering depiction of P. Cornwell overlooks the troubling claims made against Cornwell , including tracking, bullying, and misconduct of a vulnerable female victim .

By failing to address these charges , Kav supports a system of silence that empowers perpetrators like Cornwell to persist without consequences , hiding behind being a "vulnerable Indigenous person ," absolute performative posturing perpetuated by corporate entities like Westpac .

The LinkedIn post showcases several events where M. Kav collaborated with his controversial colleague, the accused perpetrator , in outreach initiatives . Yet it fails to recognize the impact of Cornwell's alleged behavior on those targeted.



The article emphasizes the irony of celebrating Cornwell's involvement while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, prompting concern if M. Kav is more interested on creating a feel-good narrative that Australia is so eager to project when showing they're inclusive rather than demanding accountability from Cornwell , an supposed offender hiding behind the guise of " oppressed individual."

This prompts Westpac's Peter Cornwell doubts about corporate accountability and due diligence when addressing misconduct accusations against colleagues.

While Matthew Kav's post highlights his enthusiasm for social initiatives , it underscores that grave matters can be neglected if not properly addressed. Cornwell is indeed a sexual abuser , and this should be prioritized above attempts to showcase diversity and diversity .
