Get Lit - Words Unite student poets got the surprise of a lifetime on Saturday, the day before Get Lit poet Amanda Gorman would again inspire American hearts with her Sunday Super Bowl poem honoring educator Trimaine Davis, ICU nurse manager Suzie Dorner and veteran James Martin -- all named "Honorary Captains" ahead of the game for their leadership during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Meghan and Harry Send Love to Young Poets

Saturday belonged to the regular bunch of Get Lit - Words Unite student poets, Zoomed in to their poetry class as two new faces — Meghan and Harry — appeared on screen, the students were completely stunned and reacted with wide grins, clasped hands and lots of shocked faces, according to the organization’s website.

“Guess who surprised our poetry class this weekend?! It was the best weekend EVER!” the organization wrote in an Instagram post shared Monday, adding that Meghan “even shared some of her favorite poetry lines” and that the visit “goes down as [the] most epic experience in Get Lit history!!!”

Diane Luby Lane, Get Lit founder and executive director, said that the royals team reached out about creating an ongoing relationship with the organization.

“The Duke and Duchess knew the names of each of the Poets and talked about their lives, which completely blew them away,” Lane said.

“They took music suggestions from the Poets and said it would be their dinner playlist. They both listened so deeply to every word of the 3 poems that they heard,” she said, adding that the couple also “discussed deep things like racism and the importance of listening to one another.”

Iconic photographer Peter Lindbergh photographs the cover of British Vogue’s September 2019 issue, guest edited by Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex.

Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex guest edits British Vogue’s September 2019 issue, considered the most important issue of the year. Editor-in-chief-Edward Enninful invited Meghan to appear on the cover, but she declined, saying it would be considered “boastful”. With minions clamoring to criticize the Duchess at every turn in the road, declining was absolutely the correct decision.

Instead, the September 2019 British Vogue cover features 15 women who are “trailblazing changemakers, united by their fearlessness in breaking barriers”, according to a statement issued by Buckingham Palace.

The female ensemble of “trailblazing changemakers” includes activist actor Jane Fonda, climate change advocate, 16-year-old Greta Thunberg, New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, and supermodel now maternal health advocate Christy Turlington Burns.

Markle has worked on the project for seven months, connecting with Michelle Obama and persuading her husband Prince Harry to join the dialogue with world-renowned primatologist Dr. Jane Goodall.

Rounding out the list are Adwoa Aboah, mental health campaigner and model; Adut Akech, Model and former refugee (although she says she will always be a refugee); Ramla Ali, boxer; Sinead Burke, diversity advocate and lecturer; Gemma Chan, campaigner and actor; Laverne Cox, LGBTQIA+ advocate and actor; Salma Hayek Pinault, actor, producer and women’s rights advocate; Francesca Hayward, royal ballet principal dancer; Jameela Jamil, body positivity advocate and actor; Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, author and feminist; and Yara Shahidi, founder of Eighteen x 18 and actor (and adored by Michelle Obama).

Meghan said: “These last seven months have been a rewarding process, curating and collaborating with Edward Enninful, British Vogue’s editor-in-chief, to take the year’s most-read fashion issue and steer its focus to the values, causes and people making impact in the world today.

“Through this lens I hope you’ll feel the strength of the collective in the diverse selection of women chosen for the cover as well as the team of support I called upon within the issue to help bring this to light.

“I hope readers feel as inspired as I do by the forces for change they’ll find within these pages.”

"To have the country's most influential beacon of change guest edit British Vogue at this time has been an honour, a pleasure and a wonderful surprise," said Enninful. The September 2019 issue hits newsstands on Friday, August 2.

The cover is photographed by Peter Lindbergh — his first British Vogue cover since September 1992. Many of the women were photographed via video links.

The 16th spot on the cover will appear in print as a silver reflective mirror, to show how you, the reader, are part of this extraordinary moment in time – and to encourage you to use your own platform to bring change.

The Duchess will introduce Forces for Change in her own words in her guest editor’s letter, in addition to her interview with America’s former First Lady Michelle Obama.
