Change.org - Racist author?

Jamie McGuire, the author of a NYT best-selling book called Beautiful Disaster, was under fire last year for racist and homophobic comments she made on social media. Now, Voltage Pictures is planning to turn her book into a big-budget movie. A new petition is calling for the film company to reconsider giving someone known for hateful comments such a big platform. Add your name to tell Voltage to take a stand against racism and homophobia. Stop Beautiful Disaster From Becoming A Movie 1,081 have signed E M’s petition. Let’s get to 1,500!

Jamie McGuire, the author of Beautiful Disaster, has a long, sordid history of racist and homophobic behavior. Moreover, on the many occasions that she’s been called out for such behavior, rather than apologizing and attempting to make amends, she doubles down on her bigotry; going on social media rants “defending” her disgusting words and actions. Ms. McGuire doesn’t deserve the platform she currently has as an author, and she certainly doesn’t deserve to have her platform expanded upon by having one of her books turned into a movie. We implore you to not only reject Ms McGuire’s actions, but condemn them. Don’t make the Beautiful Disaster movie.  If you have you own photos to share of some of the terrible things Ms. McGuire has said, feel free to post them in the comments.
