Meghan's treatment by the tabloids is not primarily motivated by racism. Proof: Doria Ragland, Meghan's 63 year old black mum, is hardly ever attacked by the tabloids. When she is mentioned in the press, the comments are generally positive or neutral. She is more black than Meghan. The backlash against Meghan is caused by an apparent disrespect for the traditions of the royal family and the UK culture that she married into.

There is racism in the UK, no doubt, but if a really black woman like Lupita Nyongo or Oluchi Onweagba married Harry and respected the royal traditions, I don't doubt that she would be regarded quite well by the majority of UK people. Only the most extreme racists would dislike her.

jesmond3945:
yea just like majority of white have the same mindset about you as a black man; very inferior.

Rajiokazaki:
........am thinking you don't know what inferior mindset means...... .. allowing racial sentiments to impair your judgement is the biggest sign of an inferior mentality

jesmond3945:
even harry is far better than you in deciphering racial assaults. I don't blame the media has succeeded in blinding you. Just go to texas and say this you would come back in a body bag.

salford1:

Lol. Why was she treated differently here then?
It's okay for Kate or Camilla to do whatever they want but not Megan. I guess different rules applies when it comes to white vs mix/black folks.

Why is it always about race with black people?

When Catherine was lampooned, was it because she was black? When Wallis was lampooned, was Wallis black? When Sarah was lampooned, was Sarah black?

People hate her character, not her color. If she were blue and respected British values, there would be no problem with her. She's not the first foreigner to marry a royal, but she's the one who blatantly refused to integrate and thought she could change tradition, because she has "progressive" idearrrs. That is her problem. Even her staff have quit because of that character. She's not a saint because she's half black. She can't even integrate with her family; who except strangers were invited to her wedding? As for being "black": Where are her black friends? Sorry. None. At all. Is she actually black?

With the flack he receives, Trump must be black according to black people.

Prince Harry and Meghan rolled the dice when it wasn’t their turn...they weren’t going to get anything the Royal Family didn’t want them to have...Nobody can play that Family (or Firm as they are called in some quarters). They have existed for more than a 1,000 years and have went toe to toe with greater and more charming foes...(e.g.the Popes and Catholics of Europe during the Middle Ages)...

salford1:

You also have white people agreeing that racism played a part too. Are those white people Negros too?

...Meghan gambled and lost - she has shown who she is time and time again...even to her father and her half-siblings...she is an opportunist who tried to get her cake and eat it too...well she calculated right in who she married (Harry), but miscalculated her in-laws big time and her ability to manipulate them...the British people accepted Meghan (a divorcee) because Harry was everyone's favourite royalty...they had a white wedding with all the royal entitlements...what more can you ask for...and she thought she could run the game on one of the oldest, racist and richest institution in the world...

...When you get to a certain level or social circle you meet a lot of Meghans'. Many successful women have Meghan type personalities, but she made some miscalculations on this one. I think she is a bit too narcissistic to not see the writing on the wall...

...Harry unfortunately is an idiot - Meghan did a good job securing him and controlling him...Someone like him is going to struggle without the support of his family....most espeically his brother Prince William...Let's see how this goes....Men living in absolute privilege- suck living in the real world and hate to see how inadequate they are without their stuff and titles to buffer them....Not that Harry have got any special skills that is marketable...no transferable or employable skills - he went from Eton straight to join the British Army...

...Meghan says she doesn’t want privacy, yet she wants to be a celeb...she wants beloved attention - she miscalculated and married the WRONG man for that...

...I truly hope that they get the private life they crave for and deserved...all the best in their new life outside the Royalty...

Rajiokazaki:
......for all your knowledge, you 've not even pointed out a hint of racism here... this inferior mentality has helped to keep black neighbourhoods in your said Texas behind .... you keep looking for things that aren't even there.... Meghan knew what she was walking into..

jesmond3945:
i dont give a Bleep about you bro. Continue to live in denial.

BRATISLAVA:


I can't believe people reason so blindly through race. The woman isn't black and has no black friends to prove it. This is how all the negroids in America voted Obama, but the man was not even interested in them. Africans were jubilating but he never cared about them. He was not even black to begin with. Blacks have misplaced race anger. Color isn't tribal politics. Most of the world has decided to overlook it in favor of people's characters.
It's the same racist approach they are using to judge this thread. Yet they claim Britons are racist.

Rajiokazaki:
..... Thank you very much... when you tell them this sort of mentality will continue to keep black people behind,, they'd jump on you like a pack of wolves

Rajiokazaki:
.... I bet you do, but couldn't just back up your claims... we 've got to move past mentality .. we are always looking for dissents, segratations, prejudices even when there aren't there....

crackkhaus:

Lol, stop saying 'they'.

In this whole clusterfvck, only one person can go back to it all if he wanted to and that is Prince Harry.
Meghan got it on a platter, had no regard for it, and lost it. She's not gettin anything back from the Windsors.

If you think this is false, let us keep our arms crossed and pray that God keeps us. We go see it all happen in this life.

yeyeosoronga:


Pls kindly find out more about this. They haven't been stripped of their titles. There is an agreement for them to stop using it officially. However, both of them can always go back to it.
They either take Harry with his wife, or non of them at all. It's a matter of pride and ego now. Reminds me of Peter ofbP square.
The future King Charles knows he owes his sons a lot. Not only because of how their mother was treated, but also because of their acceptance of the woman who didn't give their parents marriage a chance to thrive.
He has just 2 of them btw and Harry is his last child. He will get away with a lot. Charles will support his son's marriage a 100%, unless his son decides not to continue with the marriage anymore.

Rajiokazaki:
...... who says it's not persons of your kind of mind who have put this together?? .... looking for what's not there..... I bet you had to wait so long to post this..

Perhaps they should sort out why they "mistakenly" gave her a divorced woman's title first.

yeyeosoronga:

Yes, you obviously have concerns about her being divorced.
Which is fine, she's not your spec.
However, she is exactly the spice, Ginger needed in his life.

BRATISLAVA:

it's like they don't get it. They have no proof that there was racism. They've just assumed it because they think she's black. The issue is her character an inability to blend into the organization she's forced her way into.

How did she force her way into Royalty? Why did you use the word force?
Did she use jazz on Harry? Or got pregnant premarital for him?
What lies haven't they peddled against this woman? Before they dug up her background, I heard positive reviews about Meghan. Until we discovered her mum was a undisguised black woman. Until we discovered her evil half sister and brothers who havent seen or being in contact with her in over 10 years but felt they deserve something from her. They went as far as writing public letters to the Queen and Harry on why he shouldn't marry her. The jealousy was not even hidden at all, and that's probably because they're American, dem no fit hide their wickedness. If na British half siblings, they will dig the blade deeper from the back and not in front of her.
What haven't we heard
1. Initially it was claimed that he married her because she cunningly got pregnant for him. They waited months and didnt see sign of pregnancy. When she finally got pregnant, they said she will deliver earlier than expected because she must have been pregnant before wedding. Na so dem wait tire before dem begin ask again say which kind of prolonged pregnancy be this o? That one vex dem again o.
2. Dem talk say na IVF she do and na twins dem dey expect because evening newspaper like her suppose no get belle easily like dat. God come shame dem, na one baby she born putting an end to their beer parlour lies.
3. Dem talk say her papa send am private school so she owes her father her life. If you get money, you no go send your pikin go private school? No be your duty as a parent be dat?
Same father who was staging and selling pictures before the wedding. Is that one a father?
You wan talk about her half siblings wey be witches? They have only tried over and over again to sabotage her wedding to the Prince
Meanwhile, we heard the evil half sister has 2 biological children who don't talk to her, and a mother who doesn't want anything to do with her. So why should Meghan be held by the throat to have anything to do with the woman. They hadn't even been in touch for over 10 years.
then the less evil half brother too, who also has children estranged from him, has been to prison for drug related offences, who also never spoke to Meghan in over 10 years. What exactly do you think she owes these people ? She barely even knew dem as they no grow up together
They were already adults when Meghan was born. They are at least 18 and 19 years older than her. Old enough, to have left their father's house and his new wife.
