Jeremy Tardy, who appears in Netflix's "Dear White People," has announced that he's exiting the show, citing "racial discrimination" as the reason for the move.

"Unfortunately I will not be joining NETFLIX’s Dear White People for its fourth and final season due to my experience with Lionsgate and their practices of racial discrimination," wrote Tardy in the first of several tweets. "After being offered to return for several episodes my team was notified that our counter offer would not be considered and that the initial offer was the 'best and final.'".

Tardy said he found the denial to be disturbing because one of his white co-stars -- a "true ally," as Tardy called him -- had disclosed that he was given the same initial offering, but was able to "successfully negotiated a counter offer" with Lionsgate, the show's production company.

Producers "maintained their position" in the matter, Tardy said, insisting he was not to be given a raise regardless of his "credits and experience.".

"Our stance was to move powerfully as a unit in the negotiation process and, more importantly, to stand on principle because this is not simply a monetary matter," the actor explained. "We were all aware of the notorious pay disparities between people of color and our white colleagues on Netflix and Lionsgate shows; so this made it blatantly obvious.".

I am calling out their shameful practices of discrimination and racial inequality with regard to how they have historically undervalued and lowballed people of color.".

Jeremy Tardy has appeared in 11 episodes of Netflix and Lionsgate's 'Dear White People,' according to IMDb

"Dear White People," based on the 2014 film of the same name, follows a group of Black students navigating their way through a predominantly white Ivy League college
