Grateful to be in community & in solidarity w my fellow bike activists & racial justice allies at the Ride for Black Lives @R4BLBOS I was so moved by the words & lived experiences shared at this 3rd ride. The movement has not waned. Hundreds showed up to affirm #BLM
Proud to Co-Chair the Congressional Bike Caucus w @repblumenauer & to have Co-Founded the Future of Transportation Caucus w @RepChuyGarcia @MarkTakano & the Freedom to Move Act w @EdMarkey
Biking, like all modes of transit (public & walking) in a *just* world, should feel like freedom, movement without fear. Another world is possible, one which centers equity, accessibility, connectivity (to jobs+education) & sustainability in transportation infrastructure.
Another world is possible, one where our laws & budgets value Black lives, where there is freedom from fear, criminalization & brutality, for all, including Black riders. S/O to Noah Hicks of @spokehousebikes @bikesnotbombs & all who made today's @R4BLBOS possible.
@R4BLBOS lots of folks inquiring about how they can get a t-shirt
