WE ARE TRAFFIC

Cars aren't the traffic. We are. 

This is about the ride. Our literal and figurative ride in Los Angeles. How 85 years ago, we separated everyone by color and inadvertently separated everyone from each other.  And how UBER and Lyft accidentally sewed us back together. ​There's a blog, a live show and other stuff forthcoming but it's really, a community.  There's water back there if you need it. You can charge your phone if you --​::looking back:: Hey, seatbelt!  ::click:: If there's a route you prefer, let me know. Otherwise, I'll start at the end of 2014 and get us to present day pretty quick. Let's begin with my very first ride:  "#Virgins"

MY PICK
OF THE MONTH

In this groundbreaking history of the modern American metropolis, Richard Rothstein, a leading authority on housing policy, explodes the myth that America's cities came to be racially divided through de facto segregation--that is, through individual prejudices, income differences, or the actions of private institutions like banks and real estate agencies. Rather, The Color of Law incontrovertibly makes clear that it was de jure segregation--the laws and policy decisions passed by local, state, and federal governments--that actually promoted the discriminatory patterns that continue to this day.
