New 'Big Brother' petition calls for expulsion of 'racist' Jason Momoa lookalike

A week ago,"Jason Mimosa" or Jack Matthews, was just a hunky Big Brother houseguest with memes on his side. Things have shifted rather quickly, and the strong alliance member is being called racist and sexist from commentary featured on the live feeds. Aalso asks for Jack's removal from the house immediately, after some of his aggressive words struck a chord among viewers.

The petition was started by Erin Murphy of Beverly Hills, Florida after Jack was seen making aggressive comments toward the only Black woman in the house, Kemi Fakume. The petition explains Kemi's safety in the house may be compromised if Jack continues to behave aggressively toward her. Jack Matthews, a Big Brother 21 houseguest, is being called racist in a petition to get him expelled from the game.A blurb about the petition explains this."Jack Matthews has said numerous racist things and has been very aggressive towards the only Black woman in thehouse, including saying he wants to"stomp a mud hole through her chest," it explains."He needs to be expelled for Kemi's safety and to show that it's not okay to be racist in 2019, especially on TV.

Many of those who signed the petition seemed to do so in support of Kemi."Kemi literally did nothing but BREATHE to have all these WHITE men and women pressed that they're threatening her well being and saying that they hate her. If this isn't racism, discrimination and prejudice then I don't know what is. Please take them off the show," wrote commenter Tai Hairston.

Matthews made the comments on the live feeds over the past week. Murphy is not the only one to see it as a problem—the petition has garnered 1,620 signatures and continues to grow. Twitter users have commented on Jack's aggression and his behavior toward Kemi and other women in the house.
