Four days ago Bubba Wallace, NASCAR's only African American, called out the others in his "sport" (term used lightly.)
I think we can all agree ... this time IS different.
NASCAR honors George Floyd with a moment of silence and a pledge to BLM and Americans, that NASCAR needs to do and will do better.

shocking
There is zero blowback for getting behind BLM now. The KKK could make a statement in support & be fine. I honestly would not be shocked if they did that at this point.
Not to stereotype . . . except I will - most NASCAR fans must have hated that!
No doubt. Outside of a Trump rally, I can't imagine a gathering that would be as full of rednecks, racists, and confederate flags.
We shall see.
Talk is cheap.
Let's see what everyone does between now and November.
I have NO trust. None.
Not even a little.
@SeaGreenEyez True, to a point.
I want to be hopeful, but I have been before and things went right back
to business as usual.
We'll see what happens.
Driving while black is fatal in many cities NASCAR is not hiring security they are relying upon racist cops for traffic and crowd control
