Bubba Wallace grudgingly relives 2020 turmoil in new Netflix doc:
That's what former FBI supervisory agent Stanley Ruffin tells viewers in “RACE: Bubba Wallace," a Netflix docuseries that chronicles the only Black driver at NASCAR's top level and his professional rise and personal role in social justice issues. The series is targeted to a non-NASCAR audience unfamiliar with Wallace's emergence or the facts surrounding the noose found in his garage stall at an Alabama track.
He faced national ridicule — then-President Donald Trump accused Wallace of perpetrating a hoax — even though Wallace did not discover the noose or even see it. Wallace was accused of orchestrating the entire incident to boost his career. “I wanted that to be documented,” Wallace told AP."And I wanted people to see what it takes to be successful at this level and how hard it is... I wanted to showcase what it's like inside the mind of me going into these races.
“It seems like his mantra is moving forward, moving forward, moving forward,” said Parker, who added t hat he felt compelled to accurately document what was “such a traumatic time, not just for Bubba, but for the country.”
