Before Wendell Scott died in 1990, he accurately predicted the future.

The former NASCAR driver, team owner and mechanic had a hunch that he would eventually receive his rightfully-deserved recognition.

“He said that, ‘I may not be here with y’all, but one day I’ll get my trophy,’” said Frank Scott, Wendell’s son.

 ………..Wendell Scott received his RIGHTFULLY EARNED trophy, posthumously, damn near 60 years after winning the race. But, what about the lost earnings during his lifetime as a result of the slight that would have now inured to the benefit of his family?

Sorry, but beyond what satisfaction this late honor may bring the family, there really isn’t a lot to celebrate here. 

Btw, is it permitted in those states which have enacted laws against the teaching of “critical race theory” in public schools to teach children attending those schools about Mr. Scott’s story? 

God bless America.
