- shakes_mcjunkie 1y agoWhat point are you trying to make? I don't see how you're connecting these things. The highway where I live is certainly designed with racist intent.
- specialist 1y agoAre you confusing freeways and highways? Robert Caro details Moses' role wrt highways & suburbia in NYC, nationally, and even internationally. IMHO, having never Moses, I'd wager he was classist. (Moses allegedly also hated poor and immigrant Jews.) As you know in the USA economy & society, classist ~= racist.
