"At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by great feelings of love. It is impossible to think of a genuine revolutionary lacking this quality."

TOMORROW! Rally to Stop Lyft from Taking over Metro Bike Share
|
Thursday 2/15; 11:00am - 1:00pm @ Metro Headquarters (Union Station)
|
Rally with Power Mass Transit! LA Metro is considering a motion to hand over operation of the Metro Bike Share program to Lyft, a gig work company company notorious for its poor treatment of workers. This award of $133M to an anti-transit corporation threatens the long-term stability of Metro Bike Share and could negatively affect the livelihood of the unionized workers who make Metro Bike Share function.
