Charlie Hebdo s Meghan Markle Cover Blasted as Racist For Evoking George Floyd
On 3/15/21 at 6:46 AM EDT
Meghan Markle has been depicted as George Floyd on the cover of controversial French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, sparking an outcry.
The Duchess of Sussex said a royal family member made comments about how dark her unborn baby s skin would be in her bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey.
However, Charlie Hebdo s coverage of the claims triggered a backlash after a cartoon on the front cover depicted Queen Elizabeth II with her knee on Meghan s neck.
The magazine is the same one that was targeted by terrorists, Said and Cherif Kouachi, who killed 12 and wounded 11 in the newsroom in January 2015.
