“My friends, we cannot tolerate or turn a blind eye to racism and exclusion in any form and yet claim to defend the sacredness of every human life.” – Pope Francis
At Butch McGuire’s we have one value that we hold most dear – family. To us the term “family” has never strictly meant blood but has always extended to our staff, our partners, our community, and the entire human race. In our view, we are ALL one family. Some of our family members, People of Color, especially our Black family members are hurting, the pain is raw and real, and while some of us can never fully understand it, we can all look at a senseless act of racist violence and be appalled. We can understand and share the anger and pain, even if some of us cannot fathom its depths. When our family hurts… WE hurt.
We support the peaceful protests for justice for George Floyd and those countless others who have fallen to racism.
Family will always be our deepest value. We re-commit to treating every single one of our family members and every human being we encounter with love, kindness, grace, respect, dignity, and above all else – equality.
