FYI, NASCAR supports ethnic diversity, they have hired a guy
(Black as it turns out) as their head of "Diversity". There
are several minority drivers of several races in the lower
classes. Everyone has to start somewhere. There just
aren't that many minority stock car drivers that they can
throw in a Nextel Cup car and not have them be wet spots on
the wall right away. Not good for anyone.
Are they doing everything they can? No way they can make
everyone happy, and they could have been more pro-active,
but even though it isn't NASCAR's responsibility to force
minorities into racing seats, they seem to be doing what
they can. Give them, some credit.
How do I know this? ESPN had a big story on NASCAR and
ethnic diversity Monday morning (at least that is when i saw
it).
so there you have it. Diversity aplenty for everyone. :)
