Harry and Meghan’s main focus is now Black Lives Matter
Whether the royal couple will actually get around to dotting those i’s and crossing those t’s remains to be seen. Meghan and Harry reportedly have shifted their humanitarian focus entirely to the Black Lives Matter movement (via Marie Claire). Since racism and police brutality have overtaken the global stage, Archewell has been most definitely back-burnered.
Meghan could not have been more clear about how important it is to her to address racism. At a virtual graduation speech delivered to her alma mater, Immaculate Heart, Meghan said, “I realized the only wrong thing to say is to say nothing. Because George Floyd’s life mattered and Breonna Taylor’s life mattered and Philando Castile’s life mattered and Tamir Rice’s life mattered” (via People). Even before police brutality overtook international conversations a few weeks ago, Archewell had faded as a priority. Being quarantined in Los Angeles due to the coronavirus, and the pandemic’s impact on the world, had become top of mind (via The Observer).

Meghan and Harry, who now live in Los Angeles, created Archewell because they hoped to “do something of meaning, to do something that matters,” they told The Telegraph in April. With Meghan’s activist roots and the legacy of philanthropy Harry inherited from mother Princess Diana, the duo had an ambitious vision for Archewell. They planned education, counseling, support groups and a wellbeing website. These ideals, unfortunately, were not matched with attention to detail.
