The point I’m making is that Meghan and the likes of her cheerleaders Shola and Omid Scobie and her admirers are using her skin colour now to divert from valid criticism of someone whose actions, presentation and motives are very polarising and questionable to say the least. She never presented herself as a ‘proud black woman’ until she could use it to her advantage. That, to me, is disgusting and an example of racism in itself.

You could be right Oliver, which is why I wanted to check with him in a non accusatory manner, but the weird demand that if she wants to be a proud, black woman, then she had to inform masser jet a lot sooner, on top of the fact he assumes her skin colour is another weapon in her armoury, rather than it being who she actually is, is pretty weird you have to admit.
