#RoyalWeddingSoBlack: Twitter Is In A Frenzy Over All These Black AF Moments From Meghan Markle And Prince Harry’s Nuptials
The breathtaking royal nuptials between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle proved to not only be a spectacle due to its richness in British tradition, but also for its unapologetic exhibition of Black excellence, throughout.
The beautifully grand ceremony, which saw the gorgeous Markle officially tie the knot with her now husband, Prince Harry, was a true testament to two worlds perfectly colliding, with the presence of the groom and bride's respective cultures being well-represented.
From Bishop Curry's spirited Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.-inspired sermon to the trance-enducing performance by young Black cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason, the event proved to be a moment that Black Twitter significantly enjoyed.
