"It's important to remember that 'race' is only a
sociopolitical category, nothing more. At the same time ... that
doesn't help me when I'm trying to get a taxi on the corner of
125th and Lenox Avenue." -- Henry Louis Gates Jr.,
Loose Canons, 1992
Taxis simply do not exist in that area; they turn intangible and invisible at about 110th St. Luckily there is a subway stop right on that corner, and it stops for everyone.
(I know, because I got off at that stop every morning for two summers...)
