Guardian News published this video item, entitled “‘Proud to honour them’: Meghan and Harry win human rights award” – below is their description.

A US human rights charity has awarded the Duke and Duchess of Sussex its Ripple of Hope award for their activism on racial justice and mental health.  The couple received the award on Tuesday night in New York, two days before the release of a Netflix show expected to include damning revelations about the royal family. The award is named after the ‘ripple of hope’ speech on apartheid given in 1966 by Robert Kennedy to students at Cape Town University in South Africa. The charity was set up shortly after he was assassinated in 1968.
