#PrinceHarry: “It’s striking to now see the world’s leading AIDS activists are also leading the call for #COVID19 vaccine equity.Vaccinating the world is a test of our moral character & we’re experiencing a spectacular failure when it comes to global #VaccineEquity#WorldAIDSDay
“Similar to the AIDS crisis, we’ve yet again revealed over the past year, that the value of life depends on whether you were born and/or live in a rich nation, or a developing country.”

#PrinceHarry’s letter was read by Dr. Meg Doherty, the @WHO’s Director of Globale HIV, Hepatitis & STIs. #WorldAIDSDay

“My mother would be deeply grateful for everything you stand for and have accomplished. We all share that gratitude, so thank you.”
#PrinceHarry: “It’s time to draw from the lessons we learned throughout the HIV/AIDS pandemic, where millions died unnecessarily due to deep inequities in access to treatment. Are we really comfortable repeating the failures of the past?” #WorldAIDSDay

Update: ANL lost their appeal in the copyright lawsuit vs. #MeghanMarkle. The summary judgement that Justice Warby issued will stand. Meghan won both the copyright & privacy claims. ANL can still ask to appeal to the Supreme Court but success is unlikely.
“The publisher of the Mail on Sunday has lost a legal battle to overturn a High Court ruling on its publication of a letter written by #MeghanMarkle to her estranged father.” independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
“Today,the courts ruled in my favor—again—cementing that The Mail on Sunday…has broken the law. The courts have held the defendants to acct,& my hope is that we all begin to do the same…These harmful practices don’t happen once in a blue moon—they’re a daily fail” #MeghanMarkle Image

“The gulf between what the public is being told about this case and its reality is so wide the two may be described as parallel universes, as was vividly illustrated by the hysterical scandal of the Duchess’s apology.”

👉🏾 bylineinvestigates.com/2021/11/29/the… Image
“So why did the Mail & its allies make so much of it? What do they have to gain from creating this parallel universe? On 1 level the answer is simple. They hate the Duchess & so the slightest embarrassment 4 her brings them a joy to be celebrated as luridly & loudly as possible.”
“they are up to something more subtle: grooming the public to think that the evidence is all on their side. […] In suggesting that the Duchess is bound to lose, the UK corporate papers seem to be setting their readers up to be surprised when, as is ultimately likely, she wins.”

On the one hand,I’m happy that so many people in Nottingham will be helped by Meghan’s donation to @wearehimmah. OTOH, I’m so incredibly fvcking angry that the character assassination perpetrated by the UK media & sanctioned by the palace made the trustees question announcing it.
The charity accepted & spent the money, so clearly their issue wasn’t with Meghan’s values but with public perception, despite the work she & Harry have put into the Nottingham community supporting projects like Full Effect & the Community Recording Studio.
Meghan even made a solo visit to Nottingham Academy to mentor students & invited one to attend their wedding. She went on to be secret pen pals with another student recovering from a brain tumor. bbc.com/news/uk-englan…

“I’m resigning from my position on the board of the SoE. I didn’t do so in the immediate aftermath of Ian Murray’s statement saying the UK press wasn’t bigoted b/c I was assured by fellow board members that a robust rebuttal...would soon be forthcoming” pressgazette.co.uk/eleanor-mills-…
“Two weeks after the extraordinary board mtg in the wake of Murray’s departure that apology & clear statement about the Society’s current view in regards to whether the lack of diversity in our newsrooms amounts to structural racism in the UK media is still not forthcoming.”
“I have lost confidence in the SOE ever delivering such a statement. Unlike many board members I have no institutional ties keeping me from resigning on this matter of principle, so today that is what I am doing.”

“Not only was I not being protected,but they were willing to lie to protect other members of the family” she said. “They weren’t willing to tell the truth to protect me & my husband”

An investigation of the Firm’s defense or lack thereof. #BestRoyalReads buzzfeednews.com/article/elliev…
“Members of the BRF rarely issue personal statements, and the family’s media team rarely goes on the record with the press in response to a story or request for comment. (BP didn’t provide an on-the-record response for this article. A spox for the Sussexes said, “No comment.”)”
“It’s important to understand the outsize influence the Palace press office wields as it manages the UK media’s voracious hunger for royal family coverage. It can try to kill false or misleading stories before publication (journalists have said as much)”
