Stand By Me

"Stand By Me" is an enduring song for love to last.  For any couple, "Stand By Me" is a sweet song to hear.  For Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the enduring song was chosen beyond love to last. 

The established fact that Meghan's father is white and her mother is black is just that...an established, well known fact.

The established fact that "Stand By Me" was written and recorded during the Civil Rights Movement is just that...an established fact.

The established fact that President Abraham Lincoln declared Emancipation Proclamation and an end to slavery is just that...a historically established fact.

The established fact that tension in the air toward all blacks after the Civil War is just that...an established fact.

The established fact that unjust brutal treatment toward all blacks during the Civil Rights Movement is just that...a historically established fact.

People of color deserve equality in all that life has to offer.

Meghan Markle is biracial.  She has firm beliefs and values to promote as a woman of strength, not color. 

Time.com used the word "symbolic" in an article about the significance of "Stand By Me" at the royal wedding.  Symbolic union in a new era of royalty and royal tradition.

Symbolic is a profound word I would like to conclude with.
