ESPN: NASCAR bans Confederate flags at racetracks
NASCAR has banned Confederate flags from all racetracks in an effort to create a more inclusive environment.
This came after Bubba Wallace made a handful of TV appearances calling for the Confederate flag to be removed from NASCAR events. He’s NASCAR’s only full-time black driver.
NASCAR drivers have joined the growing list of athletes and sports leagues throwing their support behind the nationwide protests against police brutality.
"We are trying to deliver the message across, listen and learn," says NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace. https://t.co/dP88eNKB2i pic.twitter.com/vSsu4UrRUM
