That is a decline of roughly 1,700 employees (or nearly 14%) compared to the 12,415 workers employed during the last works council election in 2024

My third read of '26. Pretty good so far! Very informative and a heap of data for a possible further theorization of race.

✅2010-Spill 134 million gallons of oil into the sea.
✅2020-Claim ambition to shift from oil/gas to clean energy.
✅2025-Abandon such claims.

This is one of my favorite photos - it shows collaboration between 3 of the most important Black leaders of the 20th century. Anna Arnold Hedgeman is often cropped out -- yet she was as influential as Malcolm X and A Philip Randolph. Here, she's identified as Rosa Parks! Please, learn your history!

Trump 2.0's attack on universities and gutting of funding for research is nothing less than an attempt to create a new episteme, one that replaces research and experts with "do your own research" influencers and scams.
