“It Wasn’t A Surprise”, Michelle Obama In Response To Meghan Markle’s Skin Color Concern

Although many people find it shocking to hear the Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle reveal the truth about racism in the royal family, many people of color including Michelle Obama are no stranger to it. Recently, the former US First Lady talked in an interview with NBC, claiming Meghan's statement didn’t take her by surprise.

It isn't a new problem

According to Michelle Obama, the racist has always been one of the biggest problems of the people of color that she didn’t find shocking hearing about the skin tone of Archie being questioned.

"Race isn't a new construct in this world for people of color. So it wasn't a complete surprise to hear her feelings and to have them articulated," said Michelle Obama in the interview with NBC.

However, Ms. Obama also added that she hopes the problem will soon be solved as “first and foremost, this is a family”.

Michelle Obama is the wife of the US former President Barack Obama who is also well-known as the first African-American of the States.
