Meghan Markle’s Racial Identity Controversy: Did She Lie About Her Race?
The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, has once again found herself in the middle of a racial identity controversy.
This time, social media users have unearthed an online profile posted in 2013 that lists her as Caucasian, with some suggesting that she wrote these details herself.
Although the profile image was recently posted, it appears to have been circulating online for a few years.
Social media users tore her apart for allegedly lying about her race, with some claiming that she has never identified as black.
One person even wrote that Meghan always identified herself as being Caucasian and listed herself as such on all of her CVs.
The controversy has led to accusations that Meghan has aligned herself with the Black Lives Matter movement not because she cares for black people, but because she wants to use it as a platform to launch herself into politics.

Some have even suggested that Meghan uses her race as a way of deterring from her bad behavior.
Furthermore, Meghan takes offense to being called black and prefers to be seen as white rather than mixed race.
She even refused to acknowledge her mother's side and did not want people to call her mixed race.
This is in contrast to her husband, Prince Harry, who has referred to their children as mixed race.
According to Tom Bauer, the race issue started before Meghan married Harry.
She needed a PR angle as her career was not going anywhere.
Now that she has children, some have criticized her complaints about racism towards them as being ridiculous, especially since they are white.
The controversy surrounding Meghan's racial identity has been ongoing since she joined the royal family.
In South Africa, she referred to herself as a woman of color, but never as a black woman.
This has led to accusations that she only refers to her race when it suits her narrative.
In conclusion, Meghan Markle's racial identity controversy has once again come to the forefront.
Social media users have accused her of lying about her race and using it as a way of deterring from her bad behavior.
While some have criticized her for not acknowledging her mixed-race heritage, others have accused her of only referring to her race when it suits her narrative.
Regardless of the truth, the controversy surrounding Meghan's racial identity is unlikely to go away anytime soon.
