Meghan Markle's royal fortunes can't mask Britain's race problem | CBC News
'"That political or societal landing mark was far more monumental for Britain's relationship with race than Meghan Markle, in my opinion, because then it allowed people to do assessments of their own organizations using that criteria," says Eddo-Lodge. '
'She says "there's no national push" to "talk about current black British history of people who defied the odds or the odds that they were defying — i.e., British colonialism and racism."'
'But "the many millions of black people in the country, we couldn't see ourselves reflected in the Royal Family."'
'"I think it is a significant moment for people of colour — mixed race people, black people, anyone who sees themselves in Meghan," she says. '
'"So although I'm still a staunch republican, I am kind of rooting for Meghan, and I will be paying attention. '
