Black choir at Harry and Meghan’s wedding defend Prince Charles amid racism allegations
New York Post ^ | March 11, 2021 | Jessica Bennett

Members of The Kingdom’s Choir — who performed at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding — are speaking up in defense of Prince Charles as the royal family faces allegations of racism stemming from the Sussexes’ Sunday night pow-wow with Oprah Winfrey.

Ms. Karen Gibson, founder and conductor of The Kingdom’s Choir, told TMZ Thursday that it was Prince Charles who invited the African-American group to bless the congregation during Harry and Meg’s nuptials, an invitation she believed to be sincere. She also claims Charles has gone “out of his way” to congratulate them on their success since the event.

That assumes the Harkles were telling the truth about the conversation.

If they were telling the truth about the conversation, assumes that were telling the truth about it not being Liz or Phil.

FWIW, I’m thinking 50/50 that the conversation ever happened.

But if it did, my suspect would be Phil. The House of Windsor has had its bigots over the years, but I think Phil, due to his age, is the only one who might actually say something racist.

I couldn’t care less. I am sick unto death of all these cries of “racism!”, “racism!”, everywhere and over every little thing.

I’d bet there’s more malice in Meghan’s heart than in Phil’s.

Why do so many Freepers hate Americans and love Germans?

Someone may want to tell the hack that wrote this piece that the “African-American” group is made up of singers from in and around London. Meaning London, England— not London, Ohio, so it is doubtful that they are Americans. But, then again, “African-English” sounds even more patronizing.

Funny how a ‘true’ African-American never seems to be asking the govt for anything..

I am thinking Charlize Theron....

Not sure that’s true, but I’d wager that more Americans than Germans wish me ill.

That’s a nutsy comment.

Do you think that the royal family are the only interest who ever asked for the services of this choir?

I saw the defense of Prince Charles as a sincere testimony to the treatment they received.

This article is about a public-facing side of Chas. I think in private though, he’s old-school. I think it was him in what he thought was a private, family conversation.

And while we are talking about him, I don’t think he is Harry’s father. And everyone in the family knows. I think Harry is only linked to that family through his half-brother being in the family. It would explain his brother’s father not being fatherly in recent years.

Liz or Phil.

I assume you are referring to Queen Elizabeth II & Prince Phillip (her husband)?

That's kind of a nasty thing to say about any family. (I know this as someone who had a family member who suffered lifelong from such allegations - which couldn't have been further from the truth.)

Why do you care who Harry's father was, anyway? The family has never seemed to care.

'At the same time they also learn to be idle, as they go around from house to house; and not merely idle, but also gossips and busybodies, talking about things not proper to mention.'

I think Harry is retaliating for the treatment of his mother, and that both are liars trying to stir the pot.

LOL - "African-American"? The Kingdom's Choir is a British gospel choir. They are not any kind of American, including "African American".

These are the kind of knots MSM journalists will tie themselves into in order to stay politically correct. If they want to mention the race or skin color of the members of the Kingdom's Choir, they've been conditioned not to say black - they have to say "African American", and they'll say that like parrots even if the people involved are not Americans.

I’m with you on that and I could not care less about the latest blow by blow on Harry and Meghan. I am so sick of hearing their names at this point.

Just made a simple observation. I'm sorry you've had infidelity in your family.

And I don't care who his father any more than I care who your father is. It could account for some of what is going on though.

And I don't think the family has ever commented on it. How do you know that they know and that they don't care?

Sorry you got bent out of shape. I give you permission not to read what I post.
