I was trying to avoid writing about the Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s withdrawal from the frontlines of the royal family. But seeing stories on it splashed across every major British newspaper on newsstands while I was in the UK for the past week didn’t help.
If you look carefully and without bias you will see that the British press has, over a period of time, instigated a racially-charged attack on Meghan. This is putting it mildly. From accusing her of supporting terrorists because she endorsed a cookbook whose contributors were partly Muslim, to calling her baby a monkey, among other atrocities, the British media revealed the belly of the beast and a sad reality of the United Kingdom. That reality is that the country still harbours strong racial tensions as well as intense classism.
