Harry Meghan, the Duke of Sussex in England, has been committed to charity since her wedding in May 2018. However, their work results have been questioned again and again. People found that the couple advocated the protection of wild animals while tied animals to take photos with ropes, proposed donating money to poor children while holding luxury parties, and calling for environmental protection. They were righteous and said that at most two children should take private jets to give environmental speeches. The only equal rights work recognized by the outside world before has been criticized now.
Duchess of Sussex Megan Khan Markle is an African American woman who has realized the importance of an equal rights cause since she was a child. After leaving the British royal family with her husband, Megan also said that she would postpone the launch of their new charity Archiver to focus mainly on the black equal rights movement in the United States.
However, when Harry and Meghan discussed charitable work on justice and equal rights with young leaders from around the world through video conferences last week, a young leader bluntly expressed his concern that sitting with them would also be labeled as "hypocritical".
Alicia is the head of the Bahamas Equal Rights Organization. After the video conference with Harry and his wife, the Equal Rights leader admitted that she felt uncomfortable when he talked to them because she was discussing equal rights with the two most privileged people on the planet, and their titles themselves have a "colonial color". Alicia revealed that from the beginning she was hesitating whether to attend the meeting with Harry and Meghan because in her eyes the royal family itself has a direct connection with the British colonial history.
The young leader admitted that choosing to participate in this meeting was complicated because she was worried that she might be labeled as "hypocritical" by those who were sitting with those who "titles symbolize the past we need to liberate", contrary to the equal rights she called for, causing her to be labeled "hypocritical" by those who pay attention to her.
Alicia explained while writing for local newspapers: "Part of the reason for opting in to join this conference is complicated, and I decided to go there because I knew there might be someone criticizing a pro-black, anti-capitalist advocate who called for wealth distribution, so I dared to sit with those whose titles symbolize the past we need to get rid of. Additionally, the Bahamas I live in will soon celebrate its 47th anniversary of its independence, we are a sovereign and democratic country, but this country is still ‘loyal to the queen’ and the queen is still the head of state.”
Alicia pointed out that any place in their country where the UK or royal family is mentioned will cause controversy, and she continued: "Many of us are dissatisfied with the ongoing colonial remains, and we are working to eradicate them." Judging from these remarks, the young leader does not seem to be targeting Harry and Meghan, but the Queen and British royal family they symbolized in this meeting, which also caused another controversy - should Harry and Meghan voluntarily resign as chairman and vice-chairman of the Commonwealth Trust that the Queen has granted them in the past?
