"White people,” he said. “I’m asking you to bring more diversity and inclusion on these shows.” Bell explained his comments further backstage, saying: “It feels like the same issues I saw with the first season of the show, where I had to work to get people of color behind the camera, Black people behind the camera. It’s still not perfect; it’s still not great. So I feel like I have to not only call my team out, but I have to call the industry out.” He added: “You talk about more diversity on screen. I still sit in a lot of meetings where it’s mostly white dudes. It’s not about white allies, it’s about white power brokers who want to be allies.”
