What To Take Away From Talladega Superspeedway Incident

Chaunte'l Powell gives commentary on the main message from Sunday night's incident at the Talladega Superspeedway

 It was a disappointing and disheartening scene a the Talladega Superspeedway as a noose was found in NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace’s garage Sunday night.

As NASCAR continues its investigation into the matter, one thing is clear; the fight has just begun.

Eradicating racism will take more than removing flags, or posting black squares on Instagram and proclamations that Black Lives Matter. It is not an overnight process and it’s not by any means easy.
