Wow, there’s nothing about this tweet that isn’t funny. Remember when Jen Psaki said the White House believed it took “courage” for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to open up about their troubles to Oprah Winfrey? On a more realistic level, Megyn Kelly torched the couple for their self-serving “poor us” routine. The best reaction of all, though, was probably from CNN’s Chris Cuomo, who called out the “righty mouths” attacking Markle’s credibility.
In any case, it’s Markle’s 40th birthday, and to celebrate, Ibram X. Kendi is donating a whole 40 minutes of “mentorship time” to a woman reentering the workplace. That gives you a pretty good example of what Kendi thinks his time is worth, but with people like Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey donating $10 million to the man, no strings attached, you can’t blame him for being deluded.
To celebrate the 40th birthday of my friend Meghan Markle, The Duchess of Sussex, I’m donating 40 minutes of mentorship time to a woman reentering the workforce. Will you join me? #40×40 #CompassionInActionhttps://t.co/k3UJennJPH pic.twitter.com/Rh5D8fyAVL

The most prominent member of the anti-racism industry worships royalty and honors workers by donating 40 whole minutes of his valuable time. How to be a ruling class dipshit https://t.co/WnXauIPY7c

My cultural identity is the opposite of whatever the hell this is. Self indulgent virtue signaling from the reality TV duchess & Henry Rogers as opposed to, as @bethanyshondark suggested, using their platforms to call for full school reopenings to actually GET women back to work https://t.co/LRRSwYdfc8

It takes about a minute to say that America and all white people are racist and that all POC are victims of oppression. What will he do for the other 39 minutes. https://t.co/MdZJrDKTkm

Thinking women re-entering the workforce needs "mentoring" from a man is a sign of deeply entrenched patriarchy and paternalistic benevolent passive-toxic masculinity in society. https://t.co/W4c9kdAbVc

This is even worse than Valerie Jarrett asking Americans to give Barack Obama $60 as a birthday present so he can build the Obama Presidential Center.
Bonus:
Meghan Markle put out this video for her 40th birthday. How is she qualified to mentor anyone about work? pic.twitter.com/LM4EVS7bdY
