Racing While Black

Hour 2

This hour we talk to the father and son owners of Miller Racing Group, about what it is like to be an African American team in a still predominately white sport. Leonard W.

Miller has written a book about their experiences breaking through the color barrier of NASCAR called Racing While Black: How an African-American Stock Car Team Made its Mark on NASCAR.
