She then shared a second post showing a panel discussion involving Harry and Meghan. “Great discussion last night supported by @thearchewellorganization and Duke & Duchess of Sussex,” Shaun wrote.
The exhibition was set up to “celebrate the achievements and contributions of Black Americans from before the formation of the United States to present times”. Bernard and Shirley Kinsey are the people behind the collection and have spent five decades creating the world’s biggest private collections of Black art and artefacts.
Items in the exhibition include a 1963 typed letter from human rights activist Malcolm X to author Alex Haley as well as a handwritten bill of sale for an enslaved Black man from 1832. Meghan and Harry’s appearance at the exhibition comes after Meghan’s recent appearance at the SXSW festival.
The Duchess of Sussex gave a passionate speech as she reflected on “cruel” comments she’s received online. “The bulk of the bullying and abuse that I was experiencing in social media and online was when I was pregnant, with Archie and with Lili, and with a newborn with each of them,” she said.
“And you just think about that and really wrap your head around why people would be so hateful. It’s not catty, it’s cruel.” Meghan and Harry’s LA appearance also comes as TMZ aired a documentary “investigating” the scandal surrounding the Princess of Wales.
TMZ Investigates: Where is Kate Middleton? aired in America last night, focusing on how the Royal Family have handled questions regarding Kate and how it’s led to a wave of controversy. Kate became the subject of wild conspiracy theories following her abdominal surgery in January. The conspiracy theories worsened when the Princess released an edited picture of herself on Mother’s Day.
