Today we went over the second page of City limits by Colson Whitehead focusing on the hidden meaning of his words and which ones he chose to use. Several decisions were stated based on the responses to what was implied in the piece and why they were important. one of those was at what time did  Colson Whitehead write this piece due to his reference of the checkered cab and disposable cameras. several vocabulary words came up also such as matinee and incredulous. At the end of class we looked over the Bloomberg Years presentation and all that has changed in and around New York City.

This are images of the taxi cab in the film The Fifth Element in 1997 which stared Bruce Willis as the driver. the last image is a comparison of a real checkered cab and the futuristic move version.
