We are horrified and revolted by any and all racist speech particularly so when it comes from within our ranks. Let us be crystal clear: We do not condone this. We do not accept this. We will not tolerate this.
Unions are democratic organizations and this individual was elected by his local members to serve on the local board. This does not excuse his behavior and we have secured his resignation from that position as a result of this misconduct.
SAG-AFTRA rejects this hate speech and will continue to do everything in our power to bring it to an end, and will continue our efforts to advance non-discrimnation and secure equal opportunity for all our members.
