‘Coming 2 America': All the Callbacks and Easter Eggs You Might Have Missed

March 9, 2021

Matt James just delivered probably the most poignant public statements we have read yet concerning the ongoing debate surrounding his season of  The particular Bachelor .

As you’ll recall, the previous college football star’s switch on the hit reality TV display has been marred by a number of racist controversies, including compitent Rachael Kirkconnell ‘s troubling old fraternity formal pics and host  Philip Harrison ‘s contentious job interview with Rachel Lindsay about it and afterwards leave of absence .

Now, after more than a week of silence on the matter, Matt came forward with a public statement posted to his  Instagram account on Monday night, and we’ve gotta say — it hits exactly the right tone .

Writing to the public and addressing his fans and the show’s viewers, the North Carolina native wrote in part (below):

“The past few weeks have been some of the most challenging of my life, and while there are several episodes left of the season, it is important that I take the time to address the troubling information that has come to light since we wrapped filming, including the incredibly disappointing photos of Rachael Kirkconnell and the interview between Rachel Lindsay and Chris Harrison. The reality is that I’m learning about these situations in real time, and it has been devastating and heartbreaking, to put it bluntly. ”

On a roll, he continued from there:

“Chris’ failing to receive and understand the psychological labor that my friend Rachel Lindsay was taking on simply by graciously and patiently detailing the racist history of the particular Antebellum South, a painful background that every American should realize intimately, was troubling plus painful to watch. As Dark people and allies instantly knew and understood, it had been a clear reflection of a much bigger issue that the  Bachelor business has fallen short upon addressing adequately for years. ”

Best shown! And very good of He to call it out!

He summed some misconception by concluding with the most essential message of all (below):

“This second has sparked critical discussions and reporting, raised essential questions, and resulted in uplifting displays of solidarity through the  Bachelor Country . It has also pressed me to re-evaluate plus process what my encounter on  The Bachelors represents, not only for me, but for all of the participants of color, especially the particular Black contestants of this period and seasons past, as well as for you, the viewers in your own home. I will continue to process this particular experience, and you will hear a lot more from me in the end. The greatest prayer is that it is really an inflection point that leads to real and institutional alter for the better. ”

Wow. You are able to read/see the full thing right here:

Seriously well said.

What do U think, Perezcious readers? Where do Oughout stand on where  The Bachelors franchise is correct now ? Certainly the crossroads for it, and for Harrison… can the show’s makers and execs lead this in the right direction once again?

Sound AWAY with your take on Matt’s consider, in addition all about the future of Bachelors Nation,   straight down in the comments (below)…
