Greer Blitzer dealing with racist images…
ICYMI, we were told there was a 24-year-old Scholar contestant had some nasty pictures of her tweets leaked in 2016. In a now-deleted post, Greer defended her fellow student in Lamar High School in Houston, Texas (not Greer), who is dressed in blackface as Tupac for the party, which is allegedly organized as some twisted initiation ceremony by the upper class, according to BPK. At the time, the reality star claimed the second-grader, “didn’t know what blackface was,” so it wasn’t, “an intentional act of racism.” He added that the girl “didn’t paint herself black because she felt she was superior to black [people],” then dug himself into a deeper hole, complaining:
“Putting white powder on the face is also okay. Isn’t that news?”
Where did they find them??

“The journey of love is filled with lessons and these lessons are also taken during the journey of growth. In the past, I have made some uneducated, stupid and frankly, wrong comments on my social media accounts. In particular, in 2016, I used arguments that is wrong Twitter to defend students who dressed in Blackface as Tupac for Halloween.
He continued:
“I am sorry to those who have been hurt, especially those in the Black community, not because that image has resurfaced, but because I once shared this dangerous opinion. Time and age do not excuse my actions, but it does not reflect who I am today .I have not stopped or acknowledged the destructive opinions and behaviors I have engaged in during this stage of my life and will forever regret making those rude comments.

While that was a nice apology, we can’t help but think that he would never have expressed regret if the leak had not resurfaced. As one Reddit users share:
“If they’re old enough to appear on the show, they’re old enough to remember their past behavior and get rid of it before applying to become a very popular reality program.”
Right?? Unfortunately, it seems to only be a brand for a well-known dating show…
