She mentioned that Meghan made a powerful reference to her mother, Doria Ragland, using a vertical chopping gesture to convey pride and a desire to defend.

Meghan also employed verbal mirroring and open gestures to connect with the audience.

During her speech, Meghan shared childhood memories of eating dinner in front of the quiz show Jeopardy! and mentioned her mother’s subscription to the feminist magazine Ms. James observed that Meghan touched her hair in a self-lowering gesture while creating empathy through verbal mirroring and adopting a nostalgic voice.

Meghan paid tribute to her mother, expressing honor at having her in the audience.
