No public transit? Because it disproportionately hurts Black people

Why is that? Due to getting harassed by controllers?

Or are you just being sarcastic?

There are cities that have poor transit connectivity to certain areas because when the systems were designed those were black areas. Some places even ran highways through black neighborhoods to further segregate them from other areas.
