Inside Mexico City’s Chaotic Underground Rush Hour “I wanted to show a part of the Megalopolis that struck me, that showed very clearly that something is not working well for us as human beings in relation with our environment.” -Héctor Mediavilla A glimpse of Mexico City’s subway as seen through the lens of photographer Héctor Mediavilla. Known as one of the worst cities in the world in which to drive, Mexico City’s rush hours aren’t much better underground with a subway system that generates around 4 million riders a day.

    Racial and Homophobic Slurs Lead to Brawl on Green Line

    DCist is reporting that a profanity-laced argument erupted on the green line yesterday and ultimately resulted in violence.

    A white man was pushing his way onto a Branch Avenue-bound train much to the chagrin of his fellow riders. After several threats were made the white male called a black lady the n word and she called him a faggot.

    A woman with her 15-year-old son recorded the entire incident. Once the man realized this he attempted to smack the phone out of her hand, which led to the melee.

    My two cents: These slurs should never be used in public and all involved should be ashamed of themselves. Also, vertical video needs to be banned from YouTube.

    What are your thoughts?
