Saying that Americans “must stand up for one another,” Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook  published an open letter Thursday in response to the protests and upheaval that has wracked the country in the days since the death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer.

In the letter, titled, “Speaking up on racism,” Cook said that “We’ve seen progress since the America I grew up in,” but went on to add that “While our laws have changed, the reality is that their protections are still not universally applied.” Cook called Floyd’s death “senseless,”
