Amsterdam’s plan to remove 11,200 parking spaces from its streets by the end of 2025 is even more inspiring when we realize the kind of people-places that are possible where cars used to be. Example — #Amsterdam’s Elandsgracht between 2014 & 2019, via @schlijper’s great pics.

Today, we remember their legacy and #HonorThemWithAction by always choosing to stand up against hatred and violence. #PulseDayOfRemembrance
