It is wild to me PG&E is getting charged with manslaughter. In #PuertoRico LUMA Energy has caused lots of fires in residential and commercial buildings and they seem to be immune to laws and any kind of oversight. #LUMAEnergy
"After the most recent hurricane, some Puerto Ricans went a month without power. The govt is about to enter into a 15-year contract with the company responsible for re-energizing the country after Fiona. #LUMAEnergy is a U.S.-Canadian company that has taken over the responsibility of distributing #energy to Puerto Ricans, but now outages last longer."

"I think what people should understand is that we’re seeing the everyday consequences of #colonialism. And we see it when it comes to the #energy situation in #PuertoRico. We see it when it comes to the #gentrification that you saw in that documentary, in Bad Bunny’s music video."
