England removes the shame of the foundation that awarded Meghan Markle

A few days ago the news that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were awarded by the Robert F. Kennedy Foundation the ‘Robert F. Kennedy Ripple of Hope’ human rights award for being an example of “courage morale” in denouncing alleged racism within the British royal household, in honor of the Ripple of Hope speech given by the brother of John F. Kennedy at the University of Cape Town in South Africa during apartheid. However, this award did not please the Royal Family, which brought to light the shame of the foundation led by Kerry Kennedy.

“When my father went to South Africa in 1966, he spoke to a white audience and said that the issue for this generation is talking about racial justice. He also spoke of moral courage, saying that few would have the courage to question their own colleagues, family and their community on the power structure they have maintained,” Kerry said. “Few would dare to question their relatives about the power structure they maintain and that is what the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have done. They went to the oldest institution in UK history and were told they were doing it wrong. Something heroic that broke through,” John F. Kennedy’s niece pointed out in conversation with Vanitatis.

As expected, This news hurt the new British sovereign and the rest of the family a lot, who denied Markle’s allegations stating “I’m not a racist institution”. Furthermore, they have ensured that this award only seeks to acknowledge the Sussexes’ media attacks on them and is not a truly meaningful fight against real racism. For this reason, Buckingham Palace and the media closest to the monarchy have thoroughly investigated this foundation, discovering an irregularity in relation to the large amount of money they manage, being a non-profit charity. “Extraordinary finances as it distributes £250,000 in grants in the same year it receives £36m in grants,” revealed the ‘Mail Online’.

The Daily Mail also joined this investigation, revealing that in 2018, the Robert F. Kennedy Foundation “received $555,000, nearly double what it gave in grants.” Furthermore, they indicated that the president of said organization, Kerry Kennedy, receives a huge salary and recently received a raise of more than $40,000. In 2019, in fact, “there was a sharp drop in revenue, going from 43 million dollars to 18 million”, but Kennedy’s salary was not affected by this financial crisis, given that “he received compensation similar to that of the previous year”. .

Despite all these controversies generated, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are not willing to give up this award, Therefore, they are expected to attend the award ceremony on December 6th.
