"People don’t talk about what it’s like to be mixed race," Meghan Markle said in the documentary of the Sussexes.

“And I think a lot of that is, you’re not white enough or you’re not black enough. But I don’t see the world that way,” she added.

Prince Harry then talked about his children, asserting, "My son, my daughter, my children are mixed race, and I’m really proud of that. When my kids grow up and they look back at this moment, and they turn to me and say, ‘What did you do in this moment?’ I want to be able to give them an answer.

“I think it’s such a responsibility as human beings that if you bring a small person into this world, you should be doing anything you can to make the world a better place for them,” he said.
