Beyond mobility — the promise of bicycle urbanism: Florian Lorenz at TEDxVienna

Florian Lorenz is an ecological designer in the field of landscape, architecture, and urbanism. He has a strong personal and professional interest in active transportation with a prime focus on urban cycling. Since 2010, Florian has been head of research at Smarter Than Car (STC) and frequently discusses STC’s ideas via international conferences, workshops, and professional publications. As associate of the planning and communications consultancy PlanSinn, Florian worked to bring about Velo-city 2013, the Cycling Visionaries Awards, and various projects to further urban cycling in Vienna. He studied ecology as well as landscape architecture in Vienna and Copenhagen and has worked extensively in Europe, Asia, and North America.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

I think we need non-discrimination protections for hair style and texture. Afrodescendants often get an unnecessarily hard time in employment for our hair style and texture.

In fact, here are some detailed protected classes to suggest in the future:

  • Hair color, style and texture
  • Lip size and shape
  • Nose size and shape
  • Eyelid shape
  • Eye color

Skin color is already de jure protected from discrimination, but not to the furthest point that renders such discrimination impossible to treat with respect. Dark-skinned women are treated either horribly or ignorantly in much of society.

I want to see dark-skinned women receive equal treatment to lightest-skinned men. I want to see dark-skinned women’s physical features recognized under the law as sacrosanct from any attempt to demand their change. Dark-skinned women should never have to change themselves to get and maintain a job, buy/rent a home, take care of themselves and their families, and enjoy their day anywhere in the country without being harassed, threatened, abused or neglected over their epidermal features.

Legalize Marijuana and Abolish Cash Bail for Nonviolent Offenders

I read once that we’re living in the “justice reform era”. Marijuana legalization seems to be the landmark product of this era.

However, the news coming from post-legalization states is that, for its suspension of much of a local theatre of the long War on Drugs, the poor of color are not the biggest beneficiaries of this regime change.

What we do know, so far, is that white people, Latinos and homeowners are the biggest beneficiaries of marijuana legalization at the state level, especially in California. Black people who use weed while within or near their residence run a higher risk of offending the terms of their lease with their possession of weed, especially those who live in federally-funded housing.

So how do we mitigate the impact of “smoking weed while black”? One way is to abolish cash bail for those accused of nonviolent offenses, like using marijuana.

Imagine marijuana-legal California abolishing cash bail. Being the biggest state that would do so, those who are arrested for nonviolently offending the remaining state-level marijuana laws (among other laws) can be released quickly from jail on their own cognizance so that they don’t lose their jobs, homes, cars, or other life needs. Poor people of color, including those who use legal amounts of marijuana, would be major beneficiaries of abolishing cash bail and related pre-trial expenses.

Ending this financially-oppressive practice for all accused nonviolent offenders can make California a more economically-fair place to both live and use weed for poor people of color.

Maybe this can be encapsulated as a “pro-forgiveness” agenda, in which those who, by indirect way of an authority figure’s perception of a person’s unchangeable background or features, receive more disproportionate punishment for crimes or offenses which are committed at the same rate by all suspect classes can receive effective amnesty and expunging of their records.

With legal weed (in California as of this year), restrictions on civil asset forfeiture (already passed in California in 2016), the shifting of many felonies to misdemeanors (already passed) and cash bail abolition for nonviolent offenders (yet to be passed), we will see greater economic mobility for the poor of color.

I can’t wait to see both marijuana and cash bail reform happen in the same state.

These sites are very useful for tracking the user growth of federated, decentralized social networks as well as their geographic location, site-wide themes, and primary languages. I’m also intrigued by Socialhome, which departs from the “river of statuses” social media layout to use a tile-based layout.

The problem with this fediverse is that Diaspora’s protocol isn’t compatible with OStatus, which is used by Mastodon and GNU social. Friendica and Hubzilla (which forked off from Friendica) are compatible with both protocols via extensions.

I also notice that the most populated servers – https://pawoo.net, https://mstdn.jp, https://mastodon.social (all Mastodon), joindiaspora.com and http://gnusocial.no all have likely hundreds of thousands of users.
