'The wrong thing to say is to say nothing'

has addressed the graduating class of her former high school via Zoom from her home in Los Angeles, with her speech calling out what is happening in the US as 'absolutely devastating'.

'And I realised 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… and so did so many other people whose names we know and whose names we do not know.'Sky News 'I was 11 or 12 years old and it was the LA Riots, which was also triggered by senseless act of racism. I remember the curfew and I remember rushing back home and on that drive home, seeing ash fall from the sky and smelling the smoke and seeing the smoke billow out of buildings.

Meghan also implored the students to be 'part of a movement' of hope, adding that she can remember how people 'came together' during those times: 'We’re seeing that right now, from the sheriff in Michigan or the police chief in Virginia. We’re seeing people stand in solidarity, we are seeing communities come together and to uplift. And you are going to be part of this movement.'She ended her video message with words of encouragement and pride.
