Rachel Lindsay isn’t impressed at all by Hannah Brown‘s apology for using the N-word on her Instagram Live.
The former Bachelorette star and attorney called out Hannah, also a star of The Bachelorette, for what happened and how she reacted.
If you didn’t see, Hannah was spotted lip-synching to DaBaby‘s “Rockstar” and says she didn’t realize she said the word until fans point it out to her.
Later on, Hannah wrote an apology on her Instagram Stories for what happened. Rachel, however, isn’t buying it.
“It’s easy to make a statement. It’s easy to hide behind words, but when you’re bold enough to say the N-word on camera, on your platform… then you need to bold enough to use your face on camera and apologize in the same way you said the word,” Rachel shared on her own Instagram.
She added, “We can’t give people a pass for this. We have to hold people accountable for what they’re doing.”
“You should feel disgusted when you say that word. You should feel uncomfortable,” Rachel went on, explaining how heavy that word really is to Black people. “That word has so much weight and history behind it. If you don’t know, please do yourself a favor and educate yourself on that word.”
“That word was used to make black people feel less than… and every time you use that word and you’re not black, you give that word power, and that is why it is wrong,” she added. “Non-black people should not feel OK about saying the word n*****. It’s wrong.”
Rachel isn’t the only Bachelor Nation star that called out Hannah.
