very first black nascar driver (recognized) was wendell scott in 1961. But prior to this there is evidence of another black man taking to the tracks in a nascar event from Bay meadows, Ca. around August 1, 1955


Unintentional comedy relief during the grim racing was provided by Elias Bowie of Oakland driving a 1955 Cadillac in his first stock car race. Bowie toured the course as a Sunday driver checking the scenery. He had the largest pit crew, topped by a lanky double-jointed chap in green fatigue uniform. He also had provided a full tank car of Mobiloil gas. In spite of (or because of) these precautions, Bowie completed the race.

After much thought and deep and careful contemplation, I have to agree with TC. Reparations are totally needed to right the past wrongs. What do you say, TC......... One Million Dollars and a One-Way Ticket sound about right??

Stick em on the street corner with a collection jug, first one to hit a million bucks, I'll BUY em a oneway ticket to the motherland. I aint paying em shit, I've never owned a slave and I feel pretty good saying none of them have ever BEEN owned.

I understand your sentiments, but I am, of the opinion, that any person who spends their time crying for Reparations instead of bettering their life, we'd be better off without.

In the long run, one million dollars and a One-Way Ticket would be a bargain.

Serious Question...... How many do you think would take it?

I'm not sure there'd be all that many. And the ones that do would likely find out that they have even less "Rights" back in Africa than they cry about not having here. And at least everybody could quit crying about not being offered any Reparations.

Not to mention that it may possibly open the door for the descendants of my Poor Poor Nenderthal Ancestors finally getting out just due from the Descendants of all those Uppity Cro-Magnons.

I'd take a Million Dollars and the old family Cave back.
