Since Season Three has started airing, this show has gotten worse. It's always had covert racism (most all shows do) but now they're tetering into overt racism with the Bellamy/Pike/Hannah plot and white Otan's #alllivesmatter death depreciating the #blacklivesmatter campaign.

I'm just going to leave this tumblr post here to help explain the covert racism in S1 and S2 a little better and why just because The 100 has a diverse cast does not mean it's progressive in terms of race. (I disagree with a couple of the points and they only briefly touched on the abuse Lincoln has suffered but overall, it's a great intro to TV show racism.)
