We perfected the solution in the 1950s...tear down the slums to build city freeways and expressways. We called it “Urban Renewal.” Try it again.

***tear down the slums to build city freeways and expressways.***

I have read that the only part of I-40 that is unfinished is through Memphis Tn as it will go right throught the slumiest part of town.

They had no problem with that in Nashville. They tore them out and built the freeway.

So now public transportation is racist? We’re supposed to have liberal angst and find solutions to this new alleged problem? Really?? Are these liberals for real???

Blacks here called that racist because it tore down the only houses they could afford.
