Social justice organization teaches refugees to ride bikes

Posted by Ann Corcoran on July 7, 2018

The political Right can’t hold a candle to the Left when it comes to indoctrination—bringing refugees to their political view of things.

 
 

 
In Minnesota (of course, where else!), a non-profit organization is teaching refugees to ride bicycles.

Sounds like a nice thing to do, until you read the description of ‘Cycles for Change’ on their website. (Emphasis is mine)
 

Cycles for Change is a non-profit organization working at the intersection of social justice and the bicycle movement. We are grounded in the values of equity, justice, inclusion and self-empowerment. We believe it is essential to establish gender equity and safe(r) spaces for underrepresented and marginalized people on bikes. Cycles for Change centers femme, trans, women, and gender non-conforming peoples; and Black, Indigenous, and People of Color; and youth within our work.

Our goal is to create platforms that authentically cultivate leadership development and social consciousness through bicycles and community involvement. Cycles for Change implements a variety of programs to accomplish our goal. Face-to-face connection and creating a welcoming environment are central to all of our programs.
