Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have retracted a pledge of $55,700 to the Milwaukee-based Muslim Women's Coalition after its founder, Janan Najeeb, made controversial anti-Israel remarks in local publications. Najeeb's statements called for an end to what she referred to as the genocide in Gaza, prompting backlash. Archewell's funding was intended for supporting Afghan refugees. The withdrawal has faced criticism from groups like the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), which accused the couple of silencing women of color.
