Tailing a robotaxi for hours and hours is weird. And revelatory. And jealousy-inducing. But a driverless world is coming for all of us. So shut the door and buckle up.

Kenneth P. Green, Sr. was the first Black staff photographer for the Oakland Tribune, and took this stunning photo sometime in the late 60's early 70's. I've been trying to figure out the location- it looks like a former tiki bar.
