The proposal doesn t learn from history and contradicts the approach of Biden, Buttigieg. By John Norquist - Mar 16th, 2021 05:55 pm //end headline wrapper ?>John Norquist
On January 26, President
Joe Biden released a position paper on the negative impact of freeways on urban neighborhoods. It’s worth quoting:
“The creation of the Interstate Highway System, funded and constructed by the federal government and state governments in the 20th century, disproportionately burdened many historically Black and low-income neighborhoods in many American cities. Many urban interstate highways were deliberately built to pass through Black neighborhoods, often requiring the destruction of housing and other local institutions. To this day, many Black neighborhoods are disconnected from access to high-quality housing, jobs, public transit, and other resources.
