The article discusses how the Biden administration's push for electric vehicles (EVs) may disproportionately burden Black families due to various reasons such as limited range, long charging times, and lack of infrastructure in urban areas. It argues that the EV agenda may not align with the real needs of many Black households and suggests that public transportation is not a viable alternative. The author criticizes the administration for not considering the preferences and challenges of the Black community in their EV initiatives.
