History does not teach in an unbiased manner. One has to seek out history that was ignored. My black friends were always questioning the color of the baby to be. I found it odd when ever anyone commented on skin pigmentation. To me it was the same as hair color. A benign issue. I am in the minority again.
The monarchy is based on a caste system. A caste system is man-made to own wealth at other's expense.

                                        The expression "blue bloods" comes from the fact that very white skin, which has less melanin, allows the carbon dioxide loaded veins show as blue.

                                        Yes that is true
... but over the years people were lead to believe they were a special-bred species 
@TimeOutForMe Yes. Those that were not working outdoors were the powerful, wealthy, so untanned the "blue blood" became a sign of "royalty". At one time a suntan meant you worked in the fields so were poor. Today a suntan means you are not working in an office & have time to lay about & work on your tan". Times change.
The Royal Family have already been through the cement mixer and I mean this in a good sense. Queen Charlotte and Black Boy King Charles II of England.

There's an original portrait of Queen Charlotte in Buckingham Palace where she's darker than the newer portraits which depicts her as being white. ...what a total cover up. Blue Blood my A. They are of mixed race.
I'm rooting for Meghan and Harry. Harry shows his human side and not the usual stiffness of so-called British royal-ness.

@Mooolah truly so 
Then I'm that same minority, I thought exactly the same thing.
