Harrison, host of The Bachelor since 2002, said that while he's not defending the party people would not have examined an Old South party "under the same lens" in 2018 as they would in 2021, given the heightened consciousness of racial inequality amid the Black Lives Matter movement. Lindsay, an outspoken advocate for diversity in the franchise, disagreed.
I don't watch the shows but being reality tv adjacent i been hearing a lot about this. Folks are not happy and it might explains why the show has so many diversity issues
Anyone using "woke" unironically is always a red flag.
