The petition has found support from alums across Bachelor Nation (via toofab)
They're also looking for 35 percent representation for people of color, and equitable screen time for them . Among other calls for action are a better vetting process to weed out prejudice and hiring of not only diversity and mental health consultants for people of color, but greater representation on the show's staff as well.
They're also calling for a public apology for the show's history with systemic racism and a clearly outlined plan for how they're going to be anti-racist moving forward, as well as a donation to a cause to combat racism. It's a tall order, but certainly things the network and producers should consider."The Bachelor" remains a huge franchise for ABC and with each white season, fans have been growing more and more frustrated. Now, there is a sea change afoot and it may be time to start listening.
In just one day, the petition has nearly 45,000 signatures, including franchise alums like Lindsay, Tyler Cameron, Nick Viall, Lauren Burnham, Nicole Lopez-Alvar and more, according to
