Hi,
I have thought about doing this blog for months and somehow talked or thought myself out of it. I've always felt that I have nothing to say and something to say all at the same time. it is this double feeling that has kept me from doing this.
Part of me feel like I have a voice and the other part of me feel like running away from that voice out of fear of being harshly judged or ridiculed. It may seem silly to have this fear since I host a podcast, but for me speaking my thoughts and writing my thoughts are worlds apart. I have learned to speak my thoughts in spite of my fears, so today I turn my attention to writing. Today I face my fears, confront my doubts, stand up to my insecurities and begin.
This blog will be an extension of the Facts and 2 Cents Podcast on YouTube, where we push back on the negative narrative against Prince Harry and Princess Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex. This will be a place to get Sussex Facts and 2 Cents worth of my opinion.
Also highlighted here will be their philanthropic work, through Archewell, their foundation and production company. We anxiously await Princess Meghan's podcast Architypes, and Prince Harry's Heart of Invictus Documentary series and his Memoir.
Archewell Foundation will be honored on August 15th by Human First coalition for its partnership in helping the most vulnerable Afghan refugees worldwide and those still in Afghanistan.
According to Mr. Safi Rauf, Co-founder of Human First, and former Taliban prisoner “Both Sen. Blumenthal and the Archewell Foundation were instrumental in assisting us as we organized efforts to assist Afghans who were left behind when the Taliban took Kabul,” Rauf stated. “We cannot thank them enough for their support.” as reported by DigitalJournal.com.
The philanthropic work of the Sussex Squad will also have a home here as we support charity organizations around the world that are supported by the Sussexes. Currently the Sussex Squad is celebrating Princess Meghan's birthday (August 4th) and Prince Harry's upcoming birthday (September 15th) with a fundraiser for Sentebale, a charity founded by Prince Harry and his brother from another mother, Prince Seiso of Lesotho, in honor of their mother, both of whom have passed on. Sentebale means "forget me not," which is also the name of Prince Harry's mother, Princess Diana's favorite flower. The organization help young people with HIV and Aids in Lesotho and Botswana to get the help they desperately need. Prince Harry's other brother from another mother, Nacho Figueras, is an Ambassador for Sentebale. Last summer Prince Harry and Nacho played a charity polo event in Colorado, which raised $3.5 million dollars for Sentebale.

DeleteI believe October is Black History Month in the uk! Besides sharing this incredible article, I also want to thank you for opportunities to read and listen to your other messages! having a very , paganistic immoral team occupying the non religious- monarchy is frightening ! The wealthy slave owning aristocratic non-god-fearing White unintelligent racist individuals with the task of governing is quite frightening! Far too many photographs of them ! They are not glamorous ! Thank you so very much for the emotional, inspiring, and a call to action for the black community around the world! I truly thank God for all of the Sussex podcasters and all involved with helping the Sussex family, they spend hours creating the most significant news possible regarding the suffixes! I pray to God in the future we have we somehow get leaders like we have with the Sussex project involved in the NAACP and all the other supposedly black activist organizations who were set up to help make changes for the black race! I am so very disappointed that yearly what we do is support the Hollywood group and those who already have money and status! Until we stop depending on corporations to fund our activities annually or in any other way, we will not be able to approach them and get meaningful results for our black communities! I love all the Sussex podcasters and those who support them in any way! Praise God that I lived to see the type of people that are organizing the Sussex team across the world!
