Saw this tweet yesterday & saw the response by the person below. Don& #39;t know her, but she& #39;s followed by several Chicago biking orgs and Chicago biking enthusiasts.
Interest in biking ≠ understanding and aligning with racial justice.

I posted this not to make sure everyone I know unfollows her, but to show that ppl w/ these beliefs can be intimately in our spaces if we don& #39;t intentionally build spaces where those beliefs are rooted out & challenged. This can& #39;t be the first time she expressed these beliefs.
Why I can& #39;t simply be in spaces because ppl have mutual interests like biking. No, I have to know value sets, your thoughts about racial justice, equity, etc.
