Text VI

Throughout history, countless remarkable women have made invaluable contributions to the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Their pioneering work has not only advanced human understanding in these disciplines, but also paved the way for future generations of female scientists and engineers, shattering stereotypes and challenging societal norms in the process.

Over the past decade, we've witnessed a significant increase in the number of women and girls from all backgrounds and races expressing interest in STEM fields. This diversity enriches the pool of minds focused on answering some of the most challenging questions of our time. The surge in female participation has led to an explosion of new perspectivas, ideas, and innovations, contributing significantly to scientific and technological advancement. There are now more women scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and technologists than ever before working tirelessly to solve complex problems, making our planet a better and more advanced place to live. This shift is not only encouraging but also criticai for the future of global innovation.

Despite prqgress in recent years, there is still a significant gender gap within STEM fields. According to the National Science Foundation, women in STEM make up only 28% of the wórkforce in science and engineering occupations. This undeHepresentation of women in STEM can be attributed to a number of factors, including unconscious bias and lack of access to opportunities. However, it is crucial that we work towards increasing female representation in these fields, not only for the sake of gender equality, but also to ensure diverse perspectives and approaches to problem-solving within the women in STEM community. By empowering and supporting women in STEM, we can drive innovation and advancements that benefit society as a whole.

98% of Black Britons said they have compromised self-expression and identity to fit into the workplace, new findings show.

The Black Britons Voices project is a comprehensive survey of over 10,000 Black Britons - lhe largest research initiative ever to be conducted with Black British communities.

The project is a ground-breaking collaboration between @CamSociology, @TheVoiceNewspaper and I-Cubed consultants.

The research reveals a central split on the question of British pride in Black communities, and shows that racial prejudice and insensitivity in UK workplaces remain entrenched, with almost 9 in 10 respondents saying they have experienced racial discrimination at work.

Text IV

When we started for our drive the sun was shining brightly on Munich, and the air was full of lhe joyousness of early summer.

Just as we were about to depart, Herr Delbruck (the maitred'hotel of the QuatreSaisons, where I was staying) came down bareheaded to the carriage and, after wishing me a pleasant drive, said to the coachman, still holding his hand on the handle of the carriage door, "Remember you are back by nightfall. The sky looks bright but there is a shiver in the north wind that says there may be a sudden storm. But I am sure you will not be late." Here he smiled and added, "for you know what night it is."

Johann answered with an emphatic, "Ja, mein Herr," and, touching his hat, drove off quickly. When we had cleared the town, I said, after signalling to him to stop: "Tell me, Johann, what is tonight?" He crossed himself, as he answered laconically: "Walpurgis nacht."

(...) "Well, Johann, I want to go down this road. I shall not ask you to come unless you like; but tell me why you do not like to go", 1 asked. For answer, he seemed to throw himself off the box, so quickly did he reach the ground. Then he stretched out his hands appealingly to me, and implored me not to go. There was just enough of English mixed with the German for me to understand the drift of his talk. He seemed always just about to tell me something the very idea of which evidently frightened him; but, each time, he pulled himself up, saying, as he crossed himself: "Walpurgis nacht!"

(1847-1912) first published in the collection "Dracula's Guest and

Other Weird Stories': two years after lhe author's death. lt is

believed to have been intended as the first chapter for Stoker's
