It's a simple response really. I highly doubt, whatever Ngozis feelings towards the Monarchy, she set out to get Lady H to resign.I'm sure she'd probably never heard of her before the function, like the rest of the UK

Right. When you’ve been treated unfairly/very badly you absolutely have the right to speak out and (politely if the situation calls for it) call people out without having some sort of bizarre ulterior motive and generally being represented in a way that has you feeling more misunderstood than you already are. No doubt the ignorant Bobs and Karens out there who aren’t aware of the subtleties of racism will rant about the world going mad and not being allowed to have a conversation/ask someone a question anymore but at the end of the day Ngozi (she probably changed her name to that because she did a d.n.a. test and found out her Caribbean lineage has some sort of Igbo ancestry in it, which certainly isn’t uncommon; a lot of black Americans, esp. those from Virginia and Maryland, change their name to Igbo ones for the same reason, as a way of getting closer to their ancestral homeland/roots) didn’t go in there expecting to be interrogated or to have an elderly lady sacked. She spoke out (as she had every right to) and Lady Hussey faced the consequences. I doubt she would’ve resigned without public question if there wasn’t at least some veracity to what Ngozi’s said.
