So much to unpack in this incident. From the driver who fled the scene of the crash to the cyclist who avoided getting help despite being injured and fearing missing a day's work. Even the call to locate the driver with the help of twitter is telling of how half-assed the NYPD's approach is to traffic violence.

The post touches on morality, healthcare, worker's rights, police accountability and social network outreach, among other things. Just a Friday in Brooklyn, NYC - USA.

Are your protest rides leading to the changes you want to see? Are they leading to dialogues to educate? Are they leading to policy changes? Are they expanding mobility justice movements? Are they making “taking space” more safe for Black folks? Are there resources needed? Are they centering Black leadership? . We’d like to hear some feedback from folks on what they are seeing or tips to help others in the community. Leave your questions and comments below. We’d like to center BIPOC voices here so y’all with light skin privilege can learn how to be accomplices during these events. Thanks for respecting this space. . 📸@jakedietrich . #blacklivesmatter #nojusticenopeace #liberation #nomorecopskilling #handsupdontshoot #nycprotests #bluelivesmurder #freedomisnow #unitedwestand #stopracism #racistpolice #bicyclists #protest #evenslamourphotography #marching4justice #blacklivesmatter #sayhername #breonnataylor #streetridersnyc #thisiswhatcommunitylookslike #ourstreets #whostreetsourstreets https://www.instagram.com/p/CDSHc4FlIiO/?utm_medium=tumblr

Black Lives Matter is one of the largest uprisings in US history, and Black leftist organizers and Black working-class people are leading it. They are who we should be listening to right now. When we watch scenes of unchecked racism, state power, and toxic masculinity and white feminism that permeates bike culture and police culture, we have a choice: to allow them to speak for us or to hit the streets and campaign as part of a movement against white supremacy and police repression.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ While many folks go on bike holidays during a pandemic, know that it is a privilege to ignore everything happening right now. This is what class struggle in the 21st century looks like. To deny this and reduce the protests to an “identitarian” impulse is self-defeating to any serious left project for systemic change. Black poor and working-class people experience entertwined capitalism and white supremacy daily: Police violence, targeted mass incarceration, and social and economic abandonment. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The failure to confront white supremacy as a defining feature of US capitalism has consequences. It also has consequences in cycling culture. I am determined to have an “optimism of the will.” Pessimism be damned but please don't stop demanding change, please don't stop challenging folks and companies to do better, please don't stop talking to your family, co workers and friends, please don't stop being pro-Black, please don't stop listening to Black radical thought but please stop upholding white supremacist capitalist patriarchy. Liberation is for ALL of us.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Repost from @snack_bikes / Justice Ride 5 on the 4th of July. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ •⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nojusticenopeace #blacklivesmatter #streetridersnyc #nojusticenopeace #liberation #nycprotests #freedomisnow #unitedwestand #stopracism #racistpolice #bicyclists #protest #justice #occupycityhall #sayhername #breonnataylor #thisiswhatcommunitylookslike #ourstreets https://www.instagram.com/p/CDKOqswBKHf/?utm_medium=tumblr

Friday reminder that bikes have a place in the RESISTANCE not OPPRESSION. They are the vehicle and movement towards freedom. Be vigilant about who leads your protest rides and the message at the center. While BIPOC folks appreciate protest, we also want racist policies to be changed.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Wise words from @dancepostcard⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Still out here. Protesting racist violent NYPD, demanding justice for Breonna, demonstrating Black Lives Matter, and solidarity with protesters around the country and the world. At today’s ride, a popular chant as @streetridersnyc wound through major commercial areas of manhattan was “wake up wake up this is your fight too��.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📸 @joshpachecophotography”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bikeprotest⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #acab⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #aftp⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #defundbikepolice ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nojusticenopeace ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #pedalrevolution ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bikesinresistance ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bikesaretoolsoffreedom https://www.instagram.com/p/CEcT3XjHZgN/?utm_medium=tumblr

WHY WE PROTEST!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Abolish the police and white supremacist, imperialist, capitalist patriarchal settler nation. Learn to see through the horrors of this world that are packaged in neat little bows of so called 'democracy' and 'freedom' that you'd have to willfully ignore if you still fail to understand.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Jacob Blake got shot seven times in the back for breaking up a fight. A little racist white kid guns down three people, killing one, with dozens of witnesses and walks through a police line unharmed.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ None of the white supremacist militias ever stopped cops from killing anyone. Never. They are not “anti-gov”; they’re there to harass and kill protestors, often working with the police. The same scenario is playing out city by city with backing coming all the way from the WH.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Be vigilant and keep doing the work.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ RP from @bbuudii / @streetridersnyc.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #acab⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #aftp⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #defundbikepolice ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nojusticenopeace ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #pedalrevolution ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bikesinresistance ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bikesaretoolsoffreedom https://www.instagram.com/p/CEXsVyFnZR5/?utm_medium=tumblr
