My 11 year old was not allowed to get on

today because he lost his fare card, even though it’s free for DC students.
As usual, Black youth pay the cost for racist dog whistles that the media and too many “neighbors” happily parrot.

No corridor in DC should be getting ANYTHING until Black communities have the ability to buy groceries. Access to food is the most basic right in a society.
Year over year we just accept racism in the budget, planning, resource allocation, and implementation process.

These folks were obviously in the wrong place, but you rolled up and started banging on their car, which is a SUPER violation. Luckily for you, whiteness protected you, so it didn’t end how it could have.

Hey Randy, I agree that would be helpful. I would hope in the meantime you can have a clear directive to station managers so that children will not be stranded at school.
Especially since schools don’t always get the replacement cards to kids in good time.

Food deserts in Black communities are a policy decision it seems..
Random fact: Wegmans qualifies for D.C.’s supermarket incentive program, which gives markets a 10-year break on property taxes, because it’s located in a census tract that was considered low-income under federal definitions. (It’s also right up the street from a Giant.)

Creating relationships with the kids in your community is a much more effective way to protect material possessions than spending life in prison killing a child.

@311DCgov

I know for a fact that

This is not how a city that claims it cares about equity and children should work.
Who will fix this?!
Update- there is no change since 8/9.
It’s been like this at some level since 2017.
This is a Black community, in chocolate city, in 2021.

This legislation will
✅ ⬆️ Incarceration
✅Create dangerous interactions w/ police
✅Hold minors without trial
✅Help officers to lie
✅Require police to harass Black metro riders for fare evasion
✅Give businesses grants
Super awesome helpful bill!
My comprehensive Secure DC omnibus legislation will make DC safer by:
✅ Increasing prevention and ending cycles of violence
✅ Ensuring accountability for crime
✅ Improving government coordination and oversight

I mean it’s also possible that you could have rolled up on them and asked them to move down a bit because disabled people need this space.
There was zero chance they reacted to how you acted with anything different than aggression.

Being “hood rich” does not apply to our general class systems because it’s basically still poor, just not looking like it.
