Rachel Lindsay has called on the execs behind “The Bachelor” to address what she believe is systemic racism, saying she would “dissociate” herself from Bachelor Nation if changes aren’t made.
The former “Bachelorette” — the franchise’s only black lead in its history — wrote in a candid blog post that in the past she hasn’t “been loud enough on the deep-rooted, 18-year systemic problems in this franchise.”
“This is the reason that I have come to the conclusion that if changes are not made on the inside and outside of the franchise, I will dissociate myself from it,” said the 35-year-old.
She said the program must cast “leads that are truly interested in dating outside of their race,” and “stop making excuses for the lack of diversity and take action to rectify the problem.”
Additionally, Lindsay proposed the franchise diversifies “the producers on the show to make your contestants of color feel more comfortable,” and to “stop creating problematic story lines for people of color.”
“Lastly, and maybe the most important action item, the franchise should make a statement acknowledging their systemic racism,” Lindsay said.

Take a hike skank, no one cares what you think or do.
I forget... what is BET station all about again?
Do the producers need to speak ebonics?
Time to write Ms. Lindsay out of the program.
But Candace married a white guy? So did Deneen Borelli. It hasn’t changed my admiration of them one iota.
Who ?
1. Did the NY Post really write this? Didn't the author understand that the subjunctive (rather than the indicative) mood is required here?
2. Does Ms. Lindsay realize that she has basically accused "contestants of color" of being racists (because White people make them feel "uncomfortable")?
Regards,
It’s ALL about ratings. Period.
