The road signs need to be translated into ebonics.
Women, children and minorities hardest-hit.
Harrison Bergeron. Make everyone suffer.
Well then, can we expect Secretary Foxx to put his money where his mouth is by refusing to travel on interstate highways going forward?
Maybe military snipers should be posted around the beltway and on the interstates leading into and out of DC to take him out if he dares to travel on one of these racist roadways.
What is this bunch in DC going to “discover” next in their attempts to divide this nation?
Turning slums into freeways is classic urban renewal.
It benefits everyone.
Even something as great as the U.S. Space Program was designed to "keep da black man down"
Don't believe me?
Watch the long proven truth.

Can we have our slums back?
There’s a black man with a black cat
Living in a black neighborhood
He’s got an interstate running’ through his front yard
You know, he thinks, he’s got it so good
Now, multiply that by 90% of 12.5% of the US population...
Let’s run the road through a low income area at a cost of $20 million or through a high income area at a cost of $100 million.
Golly gee, what is best for the taxpayers?
And if they hadn’t gone through those neighborhoods; that would have been then been somehow discriminatory.
No doubt he’s waiting for the male tampons to become available ... probably be easier to get them once the interstate system is not so racially biased ...
If interstates had avoided black neighborhoods, he’d have something else to whinge about.
There is a lot of politics that goes into the selection of a road route. How much of it is racially, as opposed to economically, motivated is about zero.
Everything is racist. Air is racist. Water is racist. God is racist, look how crackers run the world.
I am so sick of this. These people want violence and hatred as high as possible to divide people. They cant have blacks hopping off the democrat plantation this year because masta hillary, with her fake situational southern accent and purse full of hot sauce, well, see, it’s her turn this time cuz she stuck with slick Bill all this time.
Plus paying the moms to keep the papas away.
Probably true, and considered at the time to go hand in hand with the progressive program of "slum clearance." Move the poor into high rise "projects" and use the land for higher purposes.
NYC did the same thing when they built Lincoln Center, wiping out many square blocks of poor but functioning neighborhoods to be replaced by a monument to the elite.

Everything is racist. The country is evil. We’re all bad. The only way to fix it is by taking all of Whitey’s money and giving it to blackie.
There is some truth to this claim. In the 1960s, bulldozing slums was seen as “urban renewal,” and, if well-placed, a large, elevated interstate could serve as a barrier against rioting blacks. Oh, and who was in power when such measures were approved? Democrat Lyndon Johnson. He called his program the “Great Society.”
Why didn’t highway planners buy expensive land to build a highway? I’m puzzled myself.
Highways went through poor areas because the land was cheap and few property values were hurt. In fact, some land became more valuable.
