Critical Mass"},"description":"LA Critical Mass is the largest community bicycle ride in the USA, gathering thousands of cyclists every month to reclaim public space and confront the realities of traffic violence. As the organization moves toward a more assertive advocacy role, LACM is working directly with families, safety organizations, and community partners to push for meaningful reform. Our strength comes from unity \u2014 when thousands ride together, speak together, and act together, we become a voice that cannot be ignored.","sameAs":["https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org"],"url":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/contributor\/moderndayfreak\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5678","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5678"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5678\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5685"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5678"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5678"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/la-criticalmass.org\/lacm_json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5678"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
