Princess Anne gave a very sensible answer to a question from the CBC about slavery, in contrast to woke comments from Charles. Read on.
After that clip is played — to us though not to Princess Anne, presumably — Arsenault asks the princess about the King having agreed to the monarchy’s role in slavery being studied in detail. After brief comments from the princess on whether the media’s interpretation of the King’s agreement is really the way it happened, Arsenault asks whether her views are different from her brother’s.
“The historical perspective, it goes back a lot further” suggests we recognize slavery was not actually invented by the British, nor even Europeans. It existed as far back as history can see and has been practised by many different groups against each other. The princess might have added that the British Empire was one of the first political organizations to ban it.
