Highways are the vital arteries that help transport goods and help workers commute to the office, but their origins are rooted in racism. #DailyShow

I studied urbanism in architecture school and let me tell you, so many Black neighborhoods were eroded by highways via eminent domain. Black home and business owners never received the true value of their properties, forcing them to basically start from scratch and it ruptured thriving Black towns and neighborhoods. This also exacerbated redlining and dispersed dollars that kept Black neighborhoods healthy. Consider how this would’ve compounded the daily struggles racism forced on Black people. As hard as it is to find and own a home now, how hard it would be to try and find another neighborhood that wasn’t deed restricted against the color of your skin? Could you find a landlord to rent to you; or find another bank that accepted black business? Would you still have a safe route back to your job (if you were able to keep it after you were forced to move)? And on top of that, you’re denied the right to vote on laws that directly affect your life and livelihood. This is why the voting rights act is critical and needs to be upheld. This is why institutional racism, prejudice, bias, on all levels, need to be taught and understood. Because the loss of these neighborhoods has damaged Black economics and communities for decades; and in turn the American economy and society. Black Americans make up roughly 13% of America’s population. Consider where America would be if ~13% of the population had been building generational wealth for the past 70 years instead of constantly having to start over economically or be forcibly uprooted out of stable economic areas? We do ourselves a disservice when we allow racism to persist - pretending it doesn’t exist in every aspect of American society, economy and culture. When one of us suffers, we all do.

How about that?? It's almost like the "herding" policies learned from slavery and taking over native american lands were applied to every social political economic decision by the white government during the 2nd half of the 20th century to preserve their power. But then, that would be too simple an explanation.

You are so right. This also applies to other aspects of our society. Such as health care. If our health care program considered educating about a healthy lifestyle and dental care instead of wanting people to be sick so they can be treated for a price. We could be a healthier country. A healthy coy try us a String country....thel homeless problem can be viewed the same instead of bailing banks out, everything should be done to help people keep their homes . a sick homeless country is a WEAK country.waiting to be invaded.

They took everything away from the black community and more. It hurts. You're on a roll Trevor.

@@ericallamby7475 see I disagree. Both the cross and the highway cause harm, emotional and physical, to the people they were constructed to be harmful towards. They are divorced from the racist intention of the people who built them, but that doesn't mean they are not currently causing racist outcomes. Also, I'm not saying you're arguing for leaving the highways in place, but I believe that's Tucker Carlson's point and that argument (leave it, it's not racist now) is like saying leave the charred cross in your yard, it's not racist now. Obviously it's more complex, it would be very difficult to argue dismantling these highways without replacing them somewhere fairly close would not have a pretty big impact on the flow of travel around the city, but dismantling our racist history is a cause worthy of some real effort and investment.

This is what Critical Race Theory is. It examines the crossroads between law or policy, and race. Understanding how the laws 60 years ago continue to have racially disproportionate socioeconomic repercussions today, and challenging what people consider to be social justice concerning it. From highway planning and gentrification, to gerrymandering and law enforcement, from chattel slavery to penal slavery, and everything else. That's why conservatives are terrified of it. They want to believe that racism died with MLK Jr in 68'

I feel like recently a number of Americans have learned about the Greenwood Massacre. It was an unspeakably evil tragedy and the number of lives lost should shock and embarrass any American. When you take into account the fact that the government went out of its way to make it illegal for victims in the Greenwood massacre to collect on insurance, it is pretty obvious that systematic racism was a powerful and tangible thing. Now consider the fact that decades later people who grew up in that community and survived the massacre we're still trying to rebuild and having some limited success. This seems like it could almost be a happy ending until you find out that the Eisenhower highway act used eminent domain to seize land from people in communities like Greenwood and destroyed their property values. If you don't think it's racist for the government to specifically target neighborhoods filled with minorities, many of whom have already survived significant trauma at the hands of the government, in order to build a highway system that disproportionately benefits white neighborhoods while simultaneously creating impoverished neighborhoods that perpetuate generational poverty then you are not only poorly informed but you are willfully ignorant.

America has some weird zoning. Come to think of it, your school performance will drop due to noise pollution. It increases stresshormones, decreases quality of sleep, causes hearing problems, headaches. Then when they are mentally broken, you put down things that pollute the air and water, and they will be physically broken too. Decrease local business transactions, by making the roads unfriendly to pedestrians and cyclists. A very simple very efficient evil masterplan to keep people poor and sick.

It's harder to see when it's not pointed at you and you haven't been warned to look out for it from an early age. It's easy to see the blatant racism, and often easy to pick out which people are racist (especially when they assume that as a southern white woman I must be racist too and make such comments once there are no non-white people around to hear them), but things like this highway problem happened initially before I was born and is not something I had ever known about. In order to see these more subtle, hidden, and governmental acts of systemic racism, white people need to actively look for it and educate ourselves. Unfortunately, many are uninterested, actively opposed, or just too lazy to do so.

I live a few blocks south of the southern US 80 connector: 235 in Des Moines. Just a mile east of my neighborhood (and possibly my area too) , 235 destroyed a bustling, thriving black neighborhood and its culture. It’s taken years for things to bounce back, but that old community is gone.

235 displaced everybody. When it was built and when it was widened. They built it to just miss the cemeteries, hospitals, and schools on either side of it. US235 highway is the separation of the Windsor heights and west Des Moines. Eastside it cut the poor community in two which consisted of majority white. It also separated light industrial from the smaller townships.

@@k.c1126 More white peoples lives were destroyed by the highway systems than minorities combined, 10 times over. Do you know how many people didn't have the luxury of at least being bought out by eminent domain? The rerouting of a highway in the same time period in the midwest destroyed towns and cities that were taken "off route" and "abandonment cancer" set it . Imagine everything you know is gone because a new highway supplants a Route 66 that went through your town. So every business fails, the tight nit community slowly unravels and property becomes less than you paid for,depression suicide everything sets in. Were these Japanese or Latino farmers all through the midwest that this happened to? No. These people weren't "inconvenienced, and compensated, and simply had to move" like when a road went through a black neighborhood. These were people who essentially EVERYTHING was taken, they didn't get paid. A highway going through a black neighborhood they had to at least deal with the people of the neighborhood, they could all move to adjacent areas nearby , as they did in mass, as happened often, as they had something to start over with. They weren't abandoned. What happened to the people in the midwest they were turned into invisible people, they were ignored. People had to sell acres and acres for pennys and were lucky to buy a small tract near where ever the new highway was to completely start over. Imagine seeing the mayor or banker of your town reduced to a cashier at a new supermarket. imagine hearing the home his father built was sold so he could rent a place for his family. Then imagine people forgetting all this and him being told he has "white privilege" by some POS like Trevor on TV. One's suffering isn't unique or special because of ones skin color.

This is so true. I felt this way when the very last on/off ramp between west Oakland, Emeryville and San Francisco was all of a sudden just GONE one day. Access for this predominantly black neighborhood was walled off for many years making it like a prison with no exit. The area beneath the overpass has become a homeless encampment. The highways are not racist but whoever took on the job of walling off easy access to services (ambulance/shopping/entering and exiting roadways for work) in poor or minority communities limiting ingress or egress, those people are racist, the roads are just evidence.

My respect for Ivy League schools has greatly diminished after finding out so many of these sociopaths and clowns on TV and in government are alumni. It takes a lot of evil and immorality to do what the US has done and continues to do to disenfranchise and harm certain communities and a lot of hypocrisy to then try to act like a moral authority on the bad that goes on in other countries.

One of the clearest examples of this in action: I-490 in Cleveland, one of the shortest interstates in the entire US, that runs for about 2.5 miles and just stops in a random neighborhood. The reason? The route had been planned to be about 12 miles, providing an important east-west link through a bunch of fairly heavily populated inner-ring suburbs, and while there was little opposition to bulldozing black neighborhoods and industrial areas, but as it started getting close to rich white neighborhoods the locals protested and their protests were heard. And as for separating black and white neighborhoods, I-90 through the east side of Cleveland carefully divides Bratenahl (a very rich mostly-white area with expensive lake-side mansions), from Glenville (a black neighborhood that's one of the poorest in the US). I'm sure that wasn't an accident.

If Swanson McNear Carlson's viewers were only smart enough to open a history books or look up anything that isn't from their favorite talking heads, they'd understand the implication of what discrimination in highway development would mean. But clearly, Carlson or Hannity's shows aren't catered to discerning viewers.

Who would have thought it would take a guy from south africa to educate us about the history of things we neglect to really even think of, it's amazing how much we take for granted that our ancestors not even that long ago had to go through, slavery, segregation, integration, and highways? :( Wow thanks for your teams diligence and putting this piece together

Austin is an example I know well. The Interstate was used to divide the poor folks on the east side. And in reverse, they also didn't build many roads that would allow the poor people access the rich side. Related example was a library built between the black and Hispanic neighborhoods. It became a kind of battleground and they wound up having to build another library a few blocks away (because they didn't want to push for peace between the sides, the better to keep them divided and conquered).

I also doubt the rights-of-way subsections of Public Law 85-767 was applied equitably to black home owners and black business owners. That would be a reasonable place to start with reparations to black communities specifically in relation to highway/interstate construction.

As a Chinese, I always thought China is the only country that displaces houses for highways, because in my whole life I've been hearing the west blaming the Chinese government for doing so, and I naturally thought they never do it in the west.
