What i find disturbing is how members within the army were able to focus on discriminating against someone instead of simply training our arm forces to be the best thay can be.
-
And you wonder why black people as a collective are aloof when it comes to the the armed forces and police. When these institutions don’t serve us. Anyone will go where they are celebrated and loved and leave where they are tolerated
-
Ah, the British. The Original Racists. No one has, does, or ever will do it better. Just ask India, South Africa, etc.
-
Thanks to her for highlighting what we always suspected.
-
Staying in any situation you don't like for 12 years is a choice that doesn't excuse their behaviour towards her she served revenge cold as ice
-
And they claimed that there was no racism in the Uk …
-
The royals and the UK media and the UK military need to really look at themselves.☹️☹️☹️☹️
-
I'm so proud of this lady for speaking up for herself.
-
Stay strong Kerry ✊🏽

Meghan Markle is right all this while about Britain
-
Much respect for her, and some measure of respect for the British military for being one of the only armed forces on Earth to have just enough transparency and oversight to allow the wheels of justice to turn..
-
how are people disputing the fact that there is evidence of recordings; why is this hard to understand
-
Not surprised. Not just the army, the RAF, and Navy too. There are a minority who will physically and verbally ACT on their racist tendencies but there are even far more sympathisers who will watch quietly, NEVER come to your defence when they see something WRONG, make excuses and gang-up i tried winning them over by being overly nice and losing myself, my uniqueness, changing my accent, liking their food, entertainment, in the end, i couldn't lose any more of myself
-
Agreed. It is no place for a woman. And they will do anything to discredit someone who complains.
-
They just buly women out. Same like "look for weakest" 😢 Once you complain- You out 😢
-
If your surprised by this...then you need to stop lying too yourself......
-
Why do you have black soldiers if you discriminate and mistreat them. Have you thought about how this affects their combat morale?
-
Meghan and Kerry Ann God will keep u safe and lead u 💗🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
-
I'm so sorry this happened to her 😢, There is so much abuse at women in the British military anyway let alone the racism she faced when serving for her country 😞. Good on her for trying to make change.

Where's the right in this World? We don't see
