Statement from the Council on Strategic Risks: Black Lives Matter

The Council on Strategic Risks (CSR) identifies systemic racism, xenophobia, and rising authoritarianism as drivers of dangerous human security consequences in the U.S. The organization commits to integrating the experiences of vulnerable groups into its analysis of systemic risks, asserting that justice is a prerequisite for peace and security.

• The Council on Strategic Risks identifies several systemic drivers—including systemic racism, xenophobia, ethno-nationalist political views, authoritarianism, inequality, and poverty—that create dangerous human security consequences if left unresolved.
• CSR views the pursuit of justice as a fundamental requirement for achieving peace and security, a principle that will guide all its future work.
• As part of its mission to address systemic risks, CSR commits to elevating individuals with diverse backgrounds and direct experience with injustice within its organizational processes and solutions.
