I shared this before.

If you were a person of color, having Uber and Airbnb were a game changer. Taxis and hotels were awful from the 80s-2010s.

Taxis were racists and often wouldn't even pick you up. If they did, they often took you on a joyride. Hotels were absolute shit holes. Want to complain about your room? Go pound sand.

Those industries werent good for decades. And the disruption actually made car sharing much more consistent and hotel experiences better.

Taxis sucked for white people too.

Why do you think Uber took off in white only countries? Or how does Bolt exist. Lol

Countries where the population is predominantly white and minorities are other also white ethnicities.
