Bubba Wallace: 'Any narrative' that all NASCAR fans are racist is 'totally not true'

Bubba Wallace wants to make it clear that he doesn’t believe that all NASCAR fans are racist and neither should you.

Wallace made an appearance on Thursday night’s episode of Desus & Mero and had a wide-ranging interview with the hosts about his career and his role in NASCAR’s efforts to ban the Confederate flag. NASCAR banned the flag on June 10, the same day Wallace drove a car supporting the Black Lives Matter movement at Martinsville.

"We always want to pay attention to the negative, but the narrative that's been out there now is saying all NASCAR fans are racist, and whatnot, and that's totally not true,” Wallace told the hosts.
