Meghan Markle has been employing a race narrative to garner sympathy, leveraging her biracial identity to level accusations of racism against those who oppose her viewpoints.
It's high time to bring Doria into the spotlight to remind everyone that Meghan's connection to the black community isn't solely through her marriage to Harry. Recently, Meghan and Harry saw fit to inform us, via their official website, of their involvement with the Kinsey African-American Art and History Collection. According to their release, this collection boasts one of the most extensive holdings of African-American artifacts and documents.
But there's more to the story. An Instagram post from the Kinsey Collection showcased images from a gathering held at Sofi Stadium at Hollywood Park on March 21st. The presence of Meghan and Harry at such a prestigious venue, engaging in moderated conversations with Bernard, Shirley, and Khil Kinsey, added a touch of grandeur to the event. The discussions naturally delved into the history and significance of black art, as befitting such an occasion.
Let's not overlook the philanthropic efforts of Megan and Harry's Archewell Foundation, which last year announced the donation of school supplies and menstrual products. Meanwhile, as the pictures continued, Meghan's mother, Doria Ragland, made a notable appearance alongside none other than Tina Knowles, Beyoncé's mother. Tina Knowles made her first art purchase from an African-American artist using her first paycheck, marking the beginning of her illustrious journey as a collector of African-American arts.
It's clear that Tina Knowles attended the exhibition out of genuine support for the arts and the artists involved, rather than merely bolstering Meghan and Harry's image. And while Meghan may have anticipated Tina's presence and arranged for her mother to be there, it's unlikely that Tina was aware of Doria's identity, as she graciously posed for a photo alongside her. This seems to be part of a larger strategy to enhance Meghan's image through association with other celebrity figures.
Contrast this with Meghan's actions at Eugenie's wedding, where Mark Bradford's art was prominently featured, arranged by Prince Charles himself. Meghan appears to capitalize on various groups' goodwill without making substantial contributions or demonstrating genuine care. It's essential to distinguish between gestures of support and meaningful engagement with communities and causes.
