NASCAR in Blackface

When I think of NASCAR, I think of redneck-beer chugging-tobacco spitting-Confederate Flag waving-foul mouthed white men. Never would I have placed a black face with NASCAR, even if there are a few token blacks in the industry. So you can imagine my surprise when I read the attached article about a sistah-- yes, I said a SISTAH!--suing NASCAR.

Thirty-two year old Mauricia Grant, a former NASCAR official (and only black female official) is suing her ex-boss for $225 million. According to Ms. Grant's lawsuit filed on June 11, 2008 her white male co-workers repeatedly flashed their genitalia, made sexual overtures and innuendos, compared the KKK to the NAACP, and used the word nigger like it was going out of style. In the 40 page filing, Grant said she was repeatedly exposed to a racially hostile work environment and subjected to racists comments and a sexually hostile work environment. When she complained to NASCAR officials, Grant said that she was told to "deal with it."

Wow! Just when you thought it was safe to go into the office. I bet NASCAR will look to quickly settle with Grant to avoid the appearance of racial discrimination.

Cha-Ching!!! A sistah's about to get paid! Read the article and let me know what you think.
