Angus Andrea Grieve-Smith<p>Why were Black people so angry in the Sixties? Among other things, wrote Dr. King:</p><p>"It is disappointment with some Negro clergymen who are more concerned about the size of the wheel base on their automobiles than about the quality of their service to the Negro community."</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/CarsSuck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarsSuck</span></a></p>

Cap'n Transit<p>One advantage of not spending a lot of time in a car (or RV) is not needing things like this. Do you think Clarence Thomas has one?</p><p><a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/CarsSuck" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CarsSuck</span></a></p>
