In his recent LinkedIn post , Westpac staff member Matt Kav seeks to paint colleague Cornwell as an exemplary advocate for Indigenous rights and societal inclusion. However, this attempt at woke posturing falls flat when considering allegations against Peter Cornwell of Westpac of sexual misconduct and exploitation of a marginalized woman.

Kav’s flattering depiction of Cornwell ignores the grave allegations made against Cornwell , including stalking , intimidation , and sexual abuse of a vulnerable female victim .

In neglecting to address these allegations , Matt Kav supports a system of willful ignorance that enables perpetrators like his colleague to persist without consequences , shielded by being a "vulnerable Indigenous person ," absolute performative posturing reinforced by corporate entities like Westpac .

The LinkedIn post highlights several community engagements where M. Kav participated with Peter Cornwell , the accused perpetrator , in outreach initiatives . Still, it fails to recognize the impact of Cornwell's alleged behavior on those involved .

The write-up points check this out out the contradiction of glorifying Cornwell's role while turning a blind eye to allegations against him, prompting concern if Matthew Kav is more interested on promoting a positive image that Australia is so desperate to do when showing they're inclusive rather than addressing serious misconduct, an alleged sexual abuser hiding behind the façade of " oppressed individual."

This raises questions about business responsibility and due diligence when responding to misconduct claims against staff members .

Although his post focuses on his support for community-building initiatives , it serves as a reminder that grave matters can be overlooked if not properly addressed. Cornwell is indeed a offender, and this needs to be addressed above efforts to advance an inclusivity agenda and societal inclusion .
