MN race track under fire after announcer s racist remarks
The Fairmont Raceway voiced support for the announcer on social media.

A race track in southern Minnesota is under scrutiny following a controversy involing its longtime lead announcer.
Lon Oelke is the voice of Fairmont Raceway, which is located in Martin County.
On Thursday, July 15, he was filling in at Kossuth County Speedway in Algona, Iowa, when he made racist remarks that soon went viral on social media.
Before the races started that night, Oelke railed against athletes who kneel during the national anthem and the NFL s recent decision to play Lift Every Voice and Sing
National Football League (NFL) is temporarily replacing “
The Star-Spangled Banner”, the national anthem of the United States of America with “
Lift Every Voice and Sing” (a Black hymn), as the honorable song before its 2021 games?
In a bet, you’d wager correctly that some people are pissed about it.
But the very controversial move is already in motion, and
Alicia Keys became the first to sing what’s known as the
Black national anthem before an NFL game (Super Bowl 55 last February).
Perhaps
Colin Kaepernick fired for “dissing” the “Star Spangled Banner” should get something for his trouble. Since the whole damned song is now scrapped.
