The couple received the civil rights organization's President's Award in recognition of their public service.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are extending their Archewell Foundation's civil rights efforts to the digital sphere.
"This is the era of the digital justice movement," Meghan continued."We are proud to partner with NAACP and each of you to translate the vital efforts of those who came before us to the modern challenges that exist ahead of us." And I couldn't be prouder that we're doing this work together. We moved to California, my home state, shortly before the murder of George Floyd, and for Black America, those nine minutes and 29 seconds transcended time, invoking centuries of our unhealed wounds. In the months that followed, as my husband and I spoke with the civil rights community, we committed ourselves and our organization Archewell, to illuminate those who are advancing racial justice and progress.
