Reply to comment by anotheralpaca69 in Austin aims to address systemic racism, equity with new walk and bike trail plans by gaytechdadwithson

It seems like treating systemic racism with bike paths may not be the most apt method.

Edit: not making claims about effectiveness, just noting that it's certainly not what most people expected when thinking of strategies to combat systemic racism, which is probably why OP thought it fit the sub.

But the point is that when you make bike, and walking paths, don't be racist in your designs.

Avoiding racism in city planning is not oniony. It might be a small step but discounting it like this is myopic.

Did they say this would solve racism, or just help address it?

Bad reading comprehension isn't oniony.
