Meghan’s racism claims come as no surprise to Black Britons
Fox News
Explosive allegations by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex that she faced racist attitudes from both the palace and the U.K. press have sent ripples of shock around the world. But they came as no surprise to many Black Britons.
"This is a country that doesn’t want to have an honest conversation about race," historian David Olusoga, who presented the TV series "Black and British: A Forgotten History," said Tuesday. In a TV interview with Oprah Winfrey, the former Meghan Markle said isolation and a lack of support from the royal household after her marriage to Prince Harry drove her to thoughts of suicide. She also said an unnamed member of the royal family expressed "concerns" to Harry about the color of her unborn child’s skin — a statement that drew an astonished "What?" from Winfrey.More Related News
