The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission filed a lawsuit against energy giant Exxon Mobil accusing the company of failing to address workplace racial discrimination.

In one January 2020 incident, a Black employee at the facility discovered a noose at his worksite and reported it to management. According to the lawsuit, the company was aware of three similar incidents at the facility in the last several years, with a fifth incident reportedly occurring in December 2020.

The EEOC claims that the company investigated some but not all the incidents and "failed to take measures reasonably calculated to end the harassment." "A noose is a long-standing symbol of violence associated with the lynching of African Americans. Such symbols are inherently threatening and significantly alter the workplace environment for Black Americans," Elizabeth Owen, a senior trial attorney in the EEOC’s New Orleans field office, said in the release.

We’re they intended for Brandon

Many accused 'witches' in Salem were hanged. What races were they?

Because.....?

I don’t get it what’s with the hangman’s noose? Did they hang somebody? Did they threaten somebody someone help me with this cause I just don’t get it.

Put up by whom?

I didn’t know that black people were the only race of people that where hanged.

You can bet the nooses were planted by the same people suing Exxon.

Are these emergence vent release valve ropes by chance?!?

UH OH! They've been juicied!

What about toddlers at drag shows? Nothing there?

Nothing fishy about this!

question for racists? didnt white people get hanged too? I've seen western movies that depict the past. what makes nooses a black thing, even if they were even nooses?

Gee I thought it was the white tanks

Sounds like a Bubba Wallace situation again and a giant waste of time.

What about the billions of dollars worth of damage and people killed during the riots.? It's all BS

Justice for Juicy!!

Paging Dr.Smollett

Here we go again!!!

More garage door pulls…BubbaWallace

If there weren't any necks in them, what's the big deal?

People still fall for this bullshit?

So nooses have never been used on anyone except black people?

Did Bubba find them?

The federal government will imprison you for the most innocuous thought crime. There’s no way anyone is doing this overtly. This was staged.

The government does anything they can to extort money out of companies this is why I'd take away the right to sue including the DOJ I'd clean up the swamp!

Sounds like an inside job... lets put these up, then scream and yell and sue.

A country that voted for Obama 2 terms in a row with a population less than 15 percent black, is somehow racist. The media pushes the narrative this is a racist country, is a lie. They should be the ones getting sued for creating lies and fueling hatred. This is just more lies.

People got to be more careful trying garage pulls BubbaWallace
