Decolonizing the BART

Kenji Liu of the Occupy Oakland movement just decolonized the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit).

“Decolonized Area Rapid Transit map. Open 24 hrs. Fully subsidized. Physically accessible. Accessible to people with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities.”

He created this map pretty amazingly by Facebook committee (which included Rebecca Solnit who recently compiled Infinite City: A San Francisco Atlas, UC Press 2010). Check out the the new DART map’s Facebook comments. Version 1 of the map above. There’s an equally cool Version 2 here.
