Groups push for investigation after racecar reportedly displays Confederate flag at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway

The Metro Council Minority Caucus and the Nashville NAACP are calling for an investigation after a racecar reportedly displayed a Confederate flag at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway last weekend. The groups want the Fair Board to review its oversight and policies and set enforceable standards to prevent similar incidents. They said the flag’s display at a city-owned venue was troubling and inconsistent with the values expected in public spaces.
