Public transportation systems impact the landscapes of communities in ways that often go unnoticed, both reshaping urban environments and reinforcing racial and economic disparities. Systemic disinvestment and car-centric transportation policy have consistently and disproportionately harmed marginalized communities, widening economic and social gaps. Guests on this episode describe how addressing longstanding neglect and discriminatory practices in transportation planning is imperative to supporting racialized communities in the fight for economic justice.
