Nayte Olukoya - Bachelorette 18 - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #2

Seriously, I don't think it was a very serious relationship either. He still follow's her so I'm thinking it was very casual dating jmo's. IIRC he unfollowed quite a few people when he resurfaced. I would think she would be the first to unfollow if there were issues.

ETA: I wonder now, if he'll unfollow now.

kingbabatunde For the first time in Bachelor Franchise history, the final four men are all POC!

I’m proud to be a part of this moment and to be able to stand beside three men whom I admire. Spoiler: These guys are even more genuine than they appear on TV.

I know this isn’t some earth-shattering historic event. But I can’t help but think about my experience of growing up in Canada. I grew up in a predominantly white neighborhood, went to predominately white schools, and was raised by my Mom and her side of the family. I didn’t see many people who looked like me. And when I did, it was mainly on TV. And many of us know how people who look like me tend to be portrayed on TV…

So, at the end of the day, I’m simply thrilled that people, especially POC, can keep watching Michelle be the strong, confident, intelligent, brave, outspoken, and direct role model that she is, and get to continue watching her love story play out with four stand-up gentlemen of color!

Of course, this is not to take away from any of the other gents this season. This has just never happened before and I think it is something to be celebrated and, if for nothing else, recognized.

Much love to you all.

We are more than gangsters/criminals or the sassy, funny friend/sidekick who gives witty words of wisdom. We are full people. And it's important for us to see it and for others to as well. It's so necessary for us to become a truly multicultural society.
