My child just sent me a text about a book by a white guy named Sam Forster who said the following:

"Last summer, I disguised myself as a Black man and traveled throughout the United States to document how racism persists in American society.

Writing Seven Shoulders was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done as a journalist.”

Ummm, WHAT???

sure, it’s nice in theory to get rid of the car lane on prospect park’s east drive, but then you actually have to get rid of the cars. maintenance vehicles now have no official dedicated lane, so naturally they veer into the bike lane. sounds like blasphemy, but they should’ve kept the car lane, maybe specifying that it’s for maintenance vehicles only and banning outside traffic through the park
