“We Tend to Judge Before We Understand” – Bubba Wallace Explains the Sad Truth About America

Bubba Wallace has been one of the top names in NASCAR in the past few years. Though he has only won a single race in his Cup Series career so far, his activism side has garnered a lot of attention in the past two years. Recently, Bubba spoke to radio hosts, B Swift, Karen Vaughan, and Tina Cosby. Where he discussed the sad truth about America.

During the interview, Bubba said, “Well, obviously 2020 was the year that we all wish we could forget. From everything that we have seen on the TV screens to Covid to just the downright bad stuff that African Americans had to go through well.”

“You know I was thrown in the spotlight, even more, just being the only driver and so there are two things either you can you know fold or put your feet down and keep on running. And I don’t tend to fold on situations that come in front of me so you have to make the most of it and I have just been proud to enjoy it.”

He added, “There are the fans that think I walk around screaming hey I’m Bubba Wallace Black Driver. I’m like no I’m just Bubba Wallace right?”

“I wish I could work on the disconnect but a lot of people have their minds already made up and that’s the sad truth about America we tend to judge before we understand.”

“So yeah I’m comfortable in my own skin and my own voice and the ones that are not it’s on them.”

Bubba has been in the spotlight ever since he started voicing his opinion regarding his activism. But regardless, Bubba has been fairing well.

23XI Racing might soon sign to retain Bubba Wallace for the future

After a not-so-great start into the season, Bubba quickly caught up and produced a good series of results by coming in the top 5s. But with his contract with 23XI ending at the end of 2023, there have been questions if he would be continuing with the team or not. Also, with the announcement of Tyler Reddick joining 23Xi in 2024, speculations arose over Bubba’s future with the team.

The rumors seem to have been nailed shut as Michael Jordan’s team showed confidence in retaining Bubba beyond 2023. Even Bubba said that everything is coming along nicely and they will have something to announce very soon.
