Harry did speak at the memorial.  He essentially read a speech clearly written by her.  He spoke of her commitment to menstrual health.  At a memorial for a friend the proceeds of which support a school in Africa.    Now here is the real story of MM’s “menstrual health” activism.  She gave an interview in VF in September of 2016.  She claimed to be working with a group in India on building a school for girls and said she would be going to India in January.  The story was a complete fabrication no such project existed.  Celebs can spout off whatever and no one takes them seriously but a royal GF is something different so now she was held to account for this “visit”.  So first through her pr she claimed it was too dangerous to visit India.  But that was also BS so her firm K and C quick arranged attendance at a conference and a quickie visit to an factory that makes reusable menstrual pads.  MM got all dressed up in an elaborate sari and got her photo op.  

Now about this charity.  It was founded by a young woman who subsequently received a Queen’s Young Leadership Award this past year.  Yes at a ceremony Meghan attended.  And never mentioned this woman whose work she has been taking credit for.   The idea was to found enterprises for rural Indian woman.  And a market need was menstrual pads because in rural areas there are no stores to buy pads at.  Hence the factory.

So Meghan writes a essay that appears in Newsweek Online.  She misses the purpose of the charity claims it is about stigma not enterprise.  And she never mentions the name of the charity so people can send donations.  And her solution to the issue of women not having menstrual pads?  The readers of Newsweek – primarily white affluent suburbanites – should discuss menstruation at dinner.  Seriously you can finds this joke online.

So there is Meghan Markle’s idea of being charitable.  Dress up, photo op, pr stunt and then never do anything about the issue again but brag forever about it.  She did the same in Rwanda.  Photo op in a lifestyle magazine called Rwanda Glam and never got involved with the issue again.
