EMPLOYEE BUTTHURT FORM HOW TO
We heard you and got in our own way while trying to figure out how to convey our message truthfully without following a trend, shaming, or creating division. The community called upon us to speak, and we improperly answered. The Black community is hurting around the globe. It is a great responsibility and honor to serve as its stewards and defenders. We know this community comprises an active and vocal population as well as an equally silent but vigilant cohort that has been waiting patiently. It forges deep connections, unity, profound division, and everything in between. It reflects a collection of thoughts, ideas, moments, and interests. The online community is passionate and powerful. For that, we extend our deepest and sincerest apologies. We, the members of CrossFit HQ, have failed to meet a moment when the community wanted to hear from us most. We weren’t sure how to get the message right, and as a result, we failed catastrophically by not effectively communicating care for the Black community, all as the online world was watching and experiencing extreme pain. We pride ourselves on authenticity and truth, but we got it wrong by failing to tell you we really care about black people and support the need for real change. We were not there for you in our communications. And recently, when the world was already under incredible pressure, we were not there for you online. This time we asked for too much patience from our community. We have not functioned like other organizations, and the affiliates have had to trust us in some impossible moments. Over the years, we have not always communicated with the community on time. Though we have never spoken to you with this degree of candor outside the realm of fitness and health, we are taking the step to do that now.ĬrossFit affiliates, trainers, athletes, and other members of this community have shouldered the burdens and reaped the benefits that come with sharing in CrossFit’s life-changing message. The CommunityĬrossFit is a collection of many voices. Please accept our deepest apology for contributing to the pain and confusion permeating our community - a community we love and respect for its vibrancy, strength of spirit, and diversity. That does not excuse the fact that Greg’s statements were incredibly insensitive and hurtful. He relentlessly attacks those who dilute or deny essential truths.
He is passionately focused on that message and its implications. The methodology he created provides an elegant solution to the problem of chronic disease ravaging our world today. Greg Glassman founded CrossFit and is responsible for delivering a life-changing and paradigm-altering truth. We cannot change what has happened, but we ask for forgiveness while we thoroughly examine ourselves. This year has put unrelenting pressure on us all, exposed unaddressed flaws, and been near unbearable for many.Įxhaustion and a long history of silent grievances have been laid bare on social media. The CrossFit community is in need of peace.
Despite our differences, we are united in our commitment to a visionary approach to health and fitness and our mission to bring that vision to the larger community. This letter is from CrossFit Headquarters, which plays host to a cadre of independent thinkers who come from all walks of life and hold many different beliefs.
