On Megan Markle, and the Ways We Can Better Protect Black Women
Oprah’s interview with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry was heavy on the “Protect Black Women” because it highlighted how often we fail them. Markle shared the racism she endured related to her firstborn child, as well as thoughts of suicide she experienced due to mounting pressure and bias. For some this has been a shock, as many believe the U.K. to be a post-racial society, but this is not true. Unfortunately, there are few spaces in this world in which Black women can exist in a state of peace, wellness and live unbothered.
