She looks like a tan white girl.

Minirities who pass for white have always had the easiest time assimilating.

I don't think she herself purposely passed for white at all. I believe her when she says she is proud of being biracial.

http://www.elleuk.com/life-and-culture/news/a26855/more-than-an-other/

Even her Suits character is presented as biracial with Wendell Pierce playing her father. Her other roles were so minor that ambiguity was less about "passing" than blink and you miss her.

It's not the character she plays that makes her white identified.
She keeps her hair straight reducing the chances she'll be instantly seen as biracial and/or part black.
She largely surrounds herself by white people.
She has not spoken out about black issues.
Considering she is biracial this makes sense.
People acting like this is a "win" for minorities or black people are wrong.

Yes. I know minorities like her. They are treated as, and think of themselves as "tan white girls." The historical issues people of color face do not apply to them because they do not look very different than white people. They wear their hair straight, only hangout with white people, dress like whites people, make white people cultural references.

When you ask them about race they say race isn't really a thing.

You guys do know that many biracial people have naturally straight hair right? As an actress, I'm sure she straightens her hair to get roles. Remember, white people are scared of AA/biracial natural hair. How do you guys know who she surrounds herself with? She states Serena Williams is one her closest friends. Serena maybe be having a baby with a white dude, but she stands for blackness all day long.

Also to prove you're black you have to speak out about black issues?

Do you guys speak out about "white" issues?

What else must one do to pass the black test?

Aw are your feelings hurt that somebody spoke the truth about your idol? FYI Serena is white identified too.

You know cause I got some free time, I'm going to play with you. In what world is Serena Williams "white identified"?

Is it her big butt?

Her CRIPT walking when winning Wimbledon?

Her donating over 3 million dollars to AA inner city tennis clubs?

Opening a school in Africa?

Is it because she wears weave?

Is it being a Jevoha's Witness?

Is it because she's worth over $150 million dollars?

I mean what is it?

In fact, please define what makes one "white identified"?

she has chosen to procreate with a white man, her daughter will l grow up predominately surrounded by white people/white culture and like her mother view blackness as a charitable cause. She likely like Meghan have a whit husband and so on any children from their and all of Serena's legacy and funds will mostly benefit white people. Live vicariously through Serena and Meghan all you want but don't for a second think they are doing anything to change anything for black people.

Yeah, I changed my mind. I don't have anymore time for you. I don't know much about Meghan, so I won't speak on her. But I know a lot about Serena. I have met her a couple of times due to work and it's clear that you are just a trolling for a fight. I won't derail this thread talking about Serena. She doesn't need me defending her (although I will), her connection to her blackness has been quite documented.

I wish Meghan and HArry good fortune.

I wish them well too. They are in love so I hope it works out for them.

That said she isn't a black women, So BLack women like your self should not be trying to claim this as a victory for black women/black people.

White People. Strange fruit you are! I'm going to assume you are white because you assumed I am black. No one is "claiming this as victory for black women black people"! Why would anyone do that? She is beautiful woman, who hopefully met her prince. No one is claiming her. I'm just trying to figure out the black identify test? What makes someone a black? If she wants to identify as white. Great! But we all know that white people like you won't let her (Just like you guys wouldn't let Tiger) That one drop rule lives on forever...

Pretty sure you're talking to a black woman. A very bitter, rude, black woman. She's the one obsessed with race and people "claiming" their "blackness."

I definitely feel like this is where things are headed. Harry and Meghan will boost the RF's public approval and be the new philanthropic couple.

Yes. Glamorous, jet setting royal couple mingling with the world's elite. Take pretty pictures in nice clothes and give people something to aspire to.

I loveit!!

That said she seems pretty manipulative and territorial she's going to get that ring. It's the best thing that will ever happen to her.

Why on earth would you say that? It's like the posters who rant and rave about Kate somehow "trapping" William. Are people not allowed to simply fall in love and want to marry? Some of you people have to manufacture drama for drama's sake. You guys make up entire scenarios in your heads with no factual basis. It's beyond bizarre.

Honey you very clearly are black. The kind of black person constantly seeking white approval.
That one drop rule would say Meghan is black.
She isn't. She doesn't have two black parents. She's biracially and that's okay.
And before you say it Obama wasn't black either, he was biracial.
TIger was multiracial.

I am black, I never said I wasn't! She is BLACK and she is WHITE. The way you the way you are defending biracial-ness, one would think, you think one should be ashamed to claim the black(or the white) part of one's heritage...Are you saying that? Is that what you are saying? Cause I'm not sure what you are arguing with me about? In my posts I was wondering why someone said she (as well as Serena Williams) self identified as white. She identifies as biracial, I'm cool with that. Maybe you want it to be a win for you? And for the record (maybe you are too young, or maybe I'm too old) but the one drop rule is alive and hasn't gone anywhere. Barak Obama will tell you that himself, on many occasions he said he identified as black. Nonetheless, being biracial is not a shield from the wrath of white racism and bigotry.

Good grief. You AND the weirdo PP you're arguing with are both black. Isn't that clear by now? You're not arguing with a white person.

Well, 40 is hardly "old," but she is 36.

She looks way older than 36. I think Kate is much more beautiful than Meghan. I actually think Meghan is homely. But good luck to them...

omg no way. only a racist would say something like that.

Meghan Markle is an objectively beautiful woman.

Kate Middleton was a pretty college student.

Huuuuge difference between the two.

Meghan Markle is incredibly cute -- classic girl next door. But "objectively beautiful"?? I can't think of many women who world deserve that title. Aishwarya Rai, Naomi Campbell, Christy Turlington, and Faye Dunaway in their twenties, and Monica Bellucci always... but Meghan Markle? No.

+1
I would add, Christy Turlington at all ages, not just her 20s. That woman is a goddess.

OMG enough already.
Can we just focus on what a crappy actress she is and hope to God that she quits acting once she gets the ring. Maybe then Suits will be a better show.
That is my hope right now.

That's not saying much. Kate is very plain-faced.

Right? I love Kates style and she seems very warm but lets face it her face is NOT attractive.

Oh, I disagree. I think Kate is beautiful. Her face is so pretty and I'd die for her hair and legs.

Another in the "Kate is not that cute" camp. But she seems relentlessly loyal and basically clung to Will like a barnacle until she got her man... so... there's that, if you find that inspiring.

I get it now. You're the weirdo who keeps starting threads about how much you hate Kate. It's so peculiar, your obsession. Do you think every woman who marries the person they love is a "barnacle"? Are you married? Were you a barnacle until you "got your man"?

she'll be gone by Christmas

I'm certain this was approved by the palace. Otherwise she would be dumped already

Looking more and more like they are leading up to an engagement announcement, as all the insiders are saying

This was definitely approved by the palace. In fact, it may have been pushed/encouraged by the palace.

Meghan isn't promoting anything in this interview- her show, any side business, not even any philanthropy. There's not even much meat to the interview section of the article, other than the quotes about Harry. This seems to be a preapproved first stage in the media rollout of their engagement.

She is dating the spare not the heir. The palace is not concerned about her. The Queen and the family will be polite but they won't interfere. She really doesn't matter as much as Kate who bore the current heir and spare.

When was the last time yuh read anything about Princess Anne or the Prines Andrew or Edward? Harry is in their situation.

The palace is concerned about her, as they actually released a press release about her protecting her, which is practically unheard of from them.

Prince Harry is a major star in GB, much more desired than his brother. You are as clueless as you are confident

"The Palace" refers to a statement by Queen Elizabeth II. The communications secretary to Prince Harry issued a statement about Meghan Markel, not a press release.

And it was approved by the palace. And they'll be engaged soon. Doesn't that kill you?

All royal statements are released through the palace press office, but that does not mean that they were approved by the palace. It is just a mechanism.

I will breathlessly await any engagement

Let she in DCUM land who "lived with" a person for seven years before getting married cast the first stone.

If you think you had trouble landing the junior consultant's assistant, try with someone of Prince William's caliber.

Bigger hope is that she learns how to act in England. They have the best actors in the world and with a deep dive into acting, she could be a contender.

I don't care who it is, living with someone for 7 years with no commitment makes you pathetic. Hence the British public dubbing her "waity Katie". It was a joke.
