Quote below from an ESPN article found on Google:
"Jackson also got NASCAR to form a diversity council, develop an internship program at historically black colleges, and take part in a program that will expose minority youths in Philadelphia to auto racing."

NASCAR - JESSE JACKSON AND DR PEPPER TO BACK BLACK DRIVER
The Rev. Jesse Jackson's Rainbow/PUSH Coalition and Dr. Pepper will sponsor a NASCAR Weekly Racing Series team this season featuring a black owner and black driver. Morty Buckles, of Stone Mountain, Ga., will drive a Pontiac for Philadelphia-based Miller Racing Group, the team said Friday. This team will race out of Concord, N.C. In an announcement which was part of the fourth annual Wall Street Project Conference in New York, the companies said they would work together to develop minority NASCAR drivers. The NASCAR Weekly Racing Series consists of about 100 tracks throughout the country, divided into 10 geographic regions.
