Wesley Faulkner (or maybe the person doing the interview) needs to differentiate between the future they want to see (aspirational or values-based futures) and the likely or probable future.

I'd love to live in a world where I could bring my whole self to work. I would love to live in a world where social and racial equity is part of the purpose of the company... where companies are radically transparent and honest.

We should absolutely fight for that world, but there is absolutely nothing certain about it. Wrapping it in "the future of..." is a dangerous framing which implies certainty or probability, which sadly isn't the case.
