According to a top security officer, Meghan Markle's life was in danger in the UK - why don't we ever believe women?

Buckingham Palace said a staff member had resigned after Ngozi Fulani, who is Black and was born in Britain, said she was repeatedly questioned about where she was from during a reception on Tuesday hosted by Camilla, the queen consort. https://t.co/ZKbnQOvXcx

[Liz Courquet-Lesaulnier @losangelista]

The good ol yeah, but where are you REALLY from? And these people tried to act like Meghan Markle made it all up. SMH... Also this isn't just a random *staff member* -- it's Prince William's GODMOTHER, Lady Susan Hussey.

Buckingham Palace racism outrage is more evidence that Meghan Markle was telling the truth @Independent https://t.co/6gpJi2uuvv

[Omid Scobie @scobie]

A speedy response from the Palace, who have a history of silence or denial for incidents regarding race. Lessons finally learned? Or is this just not wanting anything to overshadow the Wales' Boston visit. Arriving in the US amidst another race scandal wouldn't be the best start.

[Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu @SholaMos1]

Listening to Ngozi Fulani on @LBC now and she says Buckingham Palace has not contacted her or apologised to her.

This statement is a lie.

12/12 Laws to protect against discrimination, such as the Equality Act, must apply to the Royal family. They have form & reform seems a long way off. They must show leadership in urgent discussions & actions needed to effect change, & must atone, including through reparations.

[Jacqueline (Jacqui) Mckenzie @JacquiMckenzie6]

11/12 & violence. All those women attending the Palace should have felt safe. Ngozi was a victim of abuse, othering & racism by the incessant probing. It is right that Lady Hussey has gone but a champion of women has been traumatized by a woman at an event for women. Ironic!

[Jacqueline (Jacqui) Mckenzie @JacquiMckenzie6]

10/12 wants to retain the pomp & ceremony of yesterday as a reminder of a past glory, especially at a time when our position in the world is in freefall. Yesterday's event was to celebrate the work of women who champion the rights of women, particularly those experiencing abuse

9/12 of reports that the Royal family may have ignored right wing threats made to Megan Markle. It also comes days after those images of the Queen Consort holding the sleeve of a little Black girl rather than her hands, images which made us shudder. I get that this country

[Jacqueline (Jacqui) Mckenzie @JacquiMckenzie6]

8/12 told, given the role of welcoming & settling Megan Markle into the royal family. We know how that ended & worst, how the media & some sections of society, set out to disbelieve the victims, ridiculin & castigating them in equal measures. This latest episode comes on the back

[Jacqueline (Jacqui) Mckenzie @JacquiMckenzie6]

7/12 feel less equal to others. Too many racists hide behind institutional racism & its bogus inposter, unconscious bias. The fact that we now know the perpetrator, enables us to provide context to other modern examples of racism in the royal family. Lady Susan Hussey was, we're

[Jacqueline (Jacqui) Mckenzie @JacquiMckenzie6]

6/12 government, the army, & the police, & even the fire brigade as seen in a report just last week. I agree that it is the institutions which needs examining but society must know the perpetrators & there must be consequences for actions which continue to make some people

[Jacqueline (Jacqui) Mckenzie @JacquiMckenzie6]

5/12 African women, men & children; we can't begin to understand the modern day Royal family without looking at its history. Today, every facet of society is under the microscope as racism persists. From schools, universities, NGOs & major employers, to political organizations,

4/12 to the destruction & dehumanizing of a people with unresolved consequences. My lines included that it was the Duke of York (who became James ll) and his brother Charles ll, who set up the Royal African Company which became a prolific kidnapper & trader in millions of

3/12 resources, is undoubtedly racism of which the Royal family is steeped in. Elizabeth l funded the voyages of John Hawkins, the first recorded voyages of the British kidnapping of women, men & children from Africa, trading them across the Americas for sugar & spiceces, leading

2/12 Nevertheless, I'll have my say as the caller did say they'd decided to take the programme in a different direction, possibly to the lines I had supplied. My lines included, that what happened to Ngozi Fulani, CEO of Sister Space, a life saving DV project built with little

1/12 Late last night, Radio 4 invited me to be interviewed this morning to discuss the current accusation of racism in the Royal family. With minutes to go, I was cancelled. I know this is a feature of broadcasting as I often see others reporting this, but it is bad planning.
