Bhairavi Desai, executive director of the New York Taxi Workers Alliance, released a statement responding to a video that showed Uber’s Travis Kalanick clash with a driver. Desai says Kalanick wasn’t just being cranky, but that the altercation was “a reflection of the anti-worker philosophy that Travis Kalanick has used to build his entire empire.”
