'All women have a voice.'
Meghan's speech echoed one she made at the very beginning of the tour, in which shethat she had arrived in Africa as "a mother, a wife, as a woman, as a woman of color, and as your sister." In her concluding statement today, October 2, she reflected on how important the trip has been and how it's been full of special memories for her and her family.
"Over the past 10 days our family has had emotional moments, we’ve had poignant moments, we’ve had spiritual moments; we’ve met inspirational leaders in every walk of life, and we’ve been treated to incredible food, music, and dancing," she said. "But above all, we have been able to meet the people that are the rocks behind the sort of work that really means so much to us.
She also evoked several of the meetings she's had with women during the visit, reaffirming her commitment to the rights of women and girls she's championed before becoming a royal. "As I’ve said before, I firmly believe that all women have a voice, they just need to feel empowered to use it, and people need to feel encouraged to listen," Markle said. "There is a role for all of us here. As women we can listen to one another, and lift each other up; we can raise our boys to be men who value women. And for men and boys, you can lead by example and not let your mothers, daughters, sisters, wives, and girlfriends ever feel that they are lesser than you.
