During the visit, the Duchess of Sussex also gave a powerful speech for the community, as everyone gathered around to listen.
She said: “I do have to say I feel incredibly humbled to be in the presence of all of you as you stand firm in your core values: respect, dignity and equality.”
She continued, explaining that while she was there officially as a royal, she was, importantly, as there as an individual in her support for the community.
She said, “And just on one personal note, whilst I’m here, with my husband, as a member of the royal family...
"I want you to know that for me, I am here with you as a mother, as a wife, as woman, as a woman of colour and as your sister.”
The Duchess of Sussex's speech seemed to resonate with those in the community, as they all cheered and applauded her words.
