“...a highway built to bisect Detroit’s Black Bottom neighborhood and its epicenter of Black business, Paradise Valley.”

I know a few towns here that were bisected by the interstate, in fact I think all the cities here were bisected by the interstate. It opened up large areas to new businesses.

The idiots. The little sodomite knows he is a pervert, so he is anxious to take the moral high ground by supposedly pointing out all the moral shortcomings of the rest of us. It is just that simple.

There are racist highways and roads?

Who would have thunk it?

What about tunnels and bridges?

Bunch of racists.

Building Back Better, it turns out, means literally tearing down the infrastructure.

The economy is in shambles and this is what they earmark money for.... there is no limit to the cluelessness of the left. It will be their downfall and they will wonder what happened.

It’s about time. John Mellencamp wrote Little Pink Houses in 1983 and sang about this problem:

“There’s a black man with a black cat
Livin’ in a black neighborhood
He’s got an interstate runnin’ through his front yard
You know he thinks he’s got it so good
And there’s a woman in the kitchen
Cleanin’ up the evenin’ slop
And he looks at her and says, “Hey darlin’, I can remember when
You could stop a clock”

The Long Island Expressway in N.Y. is a prime example of Highway Racism. People have to wait forever to get onto it and no-one will let you get in front of them even if you need to exit. ( probably part of Gates population control )

How many majority-White villages went to pot because the interstate bypassed them?

Right. Route 66 for one. I-10 and TX 90 are the same way.
Before I-10 you had to go highway 90 through the State and on eastward.

American roads are BINARY.

Always, drive on the right. Drive on the right. What if that’s not how you identify? What if you’re bi?

WHAT IF YOU’RE TRANS?

We need to replace right-wing roads with mobius strips and the sooner the better!!!

What's a “racist road”?
A road painted black like all roads?
