During her visit to Colombia, Meghan Markle delivered a speech on female empowerment at the 'Afro women and power' forum in Cali, expressing her gratitude for the warm welcome and her pride in her daughter Lilibet for 'finding her voice.' She began her address in Spanish, acknowledging her imperfect language skills while highlighting the importance of women being heard. The couple's security was notably tight, with armed forces present as they engaged in various cultural activities, including a visit to a local drum school in Cartagena. They also explored San Basilio de Palenque, a historic village founded by escaped slaves, emphasizing their connection to Afro-Colombian heritage. Meghan's bond with Colombia's Vice President Francia Marquez, the first black woman to hold the position, has been highlighted during their tour, as both women advocate for the empowerment of Afro-descendant women. Their final event will be attending the Petronio Alvarez Festival, celebrating Afro-Colombian music.
