The Board and Directors of the Atlanta Suzuki Institute condemn racism and racial violence in all its forms. Recent crimes, including the murders of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and countless others have served as a catalyst for change within our organization. We believe Black lives matter and that racism and intolerance are incompatible with the Suzuki philosophy. The Atlanta Suzuki Institute is actively working to promote and provide opportunities for equity and diversity in our administration, faculty, student body, and program offerings. We stand committed to creating spaces where all are welcome, valued, respected, and included.
