    This happens to folks of color every day. And while most cabbies do their job, there are those ignorant, racist ones who hurt the others

        @alroker Just saying. I get you being mad he darted but immediately jumping to race and tweeting it is destructive. People look up to you.

        @alroker this is why Uber is winning. I know black men who only use Uber cause regular yellow cabs won't stop for them...
