We had an amazing weekend in Atlantic Beach,SC! As part of the #ThrivingCommunities Program, we engaged with the community, celebrated its 90th anniversary, developed a multimedia narrative, and conducted a walk audit for future funding opportunities #TheBlackPearl #UrbanPlanning
This is #Arrestedmobility!
A Young Black male was walking around his neighborhood in Sarasota Fl the morning after Hurricane Milton, because his power was out and he wanted to get better service to use his cell phone. And a group of suspected white supremacists who also lived in the area started to harass him. One of the suspected white supremacists even pulled out a 🔫. This incident was allegedly reported to the Sarasota Police, and they got on code with the suspected white supremacists and said no crime was committed.

“Micromobility can be very valuable in communities with subpar public transit access. Riding a scooter to and from a bus station is an affordable way to make commuting faster and easier. It can also be safer.” @streetsblogkea 🛴 @ctbrown1911

“We saw with our own eyes children having to scale trains stopped in their pathway in order to get to school. Because of the trains’ length walking around isn’t practical so they are forced to climb over or under the train.” @ReporterTopher 🛤️ @ctbrown1911
