A Statement of Solidarity
Brocade strives to be an anti-racist organization.
As we actively pursue a responsible way to internally measure progress on that commitment, we practice a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination, hate speech, and racism in any form. This includes our team, our contractors, and our clients.
We stand with our Richmond, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia communities, and with those standing up in support of Black lives in communities around the world.
Inaction perpetuates white supremacy. To end systemic racism we must dismantle the tools of oppression, including violence against Black lives, voter suppression, and economic inequality rooted in and perpetuated through generational discrimination and racism.
Brocade radically imagines a just society.
Project Spotlight
Dorothea Dix Park
Raleigh, NC | Interpretive Planning
One of the largest new public park projects in the country, Dorothea Dix Park is an emerging 308-acre public space in the heart of Raleigh. The land has a layered history - of hunting, gathering, and potential cultivation among Indigenous people, of enslavement at a major plantation, and as the site of one of the country's earliest mental health facilities. In partnership with experience design firm Cloud Gehshan, Brocade is working with the City of Raleigh to develop a cultural interpretation plan for the park. This significant project involves extensive research, as well as engagement with a range of communities.
"Brocade proved instrumental at the both the strategic and tactical levels.
They organized our initiative's big ideas, and helped to bring the planning to life."
