'The nature of the criticism of Meghan may fall into a well-trodden pattern that is frequently used as a tactic to undermine Black women.'

Just days before her ‘tell-all’ interview with Oprah Winfrey is set to air,According to reports from The Times, Meghan was the subject of a bullying complaint during her time atIn response, Meghan’s spokesperson has said: ‘The duchess is saddened by this latest attack on her character, particularly as someone who has been the target of bullying herself and is deeply committed to supporting those who have experienced pain and trauma.

Rachel says that to accuse a Black woman of bullying or aggression in that moment is an incredibly effective deflection technique. ‘If we call somebody out for being wrong, and we do it effectively, rather than acknowledge what it is that they’ve done, they can then place all of the attention on your conduct,’ she explains.

‘Women are traditionally associated with soft skills, such as listening, empathy and collaboration,’ says Dr Babb. ‘When women step outside this framework it can generate interpersonal difficulties. ‘It can cause Black women to doubt their relational skills, question their identity and suffer losses of self-esteem, agency and confidence.

Meghan Markle is not black.

The victims

Meghan Markle is NOT Black.

You are just stiring shite. You should be taken to court and heavily fined.

Those who bully are bullies & when they're outed as such they play the victim & race cards, because all bullies are cowards, deep down, who like to dish it out but can't take it regardless of the colour of their skin.

Not every black woman is accused of bullying and those who do are to put it bluntly, are just bullies.

Stop race baiting, Metro.
