Duke and Duchess of Sussex launch campaign to celebrate Black British ‘trailblazers’
The Duchess of Sussex said she was unaware the UK had its own Black History Month as she and her husband called for an end to the “structural racism” that is holding back young people of colour in the UK.
It came as the duke and duchess launched a campaign to celebrate Black British “trailblazers” with the Evening Standard to recognise “a group of notable leaders whose influence is making a positive and lasting impact on British culture”. The list includes the disability campaigner Danielle Oreoluwa Jinadu, the poet Henry Stone, and Liv Little, who founded gal-dem magazine.
