'Shucking and Jivin' or Racialised Humour by Person's of African-American Descent That Can Signal the Internalisation of Racist Narratives: Prince Harry and Bishop Michael Curry spoofed on Saturday Night Live

Some may view the the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle as a Black Woman acquiescing and allowing herself to be used to validate or normalise an arcane, colonialist institution that is , the British Royal Family.

Whilst still others may view the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle as a Black woman who has dared to step out of her place.

I believe that this Saturday Night Live skit is in part, signalling by some, the general discomfort of some of Ms. Markle's accession in an institution deemed a 'White' space.
