'I realized the only wrong thing to say is to say nothing.'
"So the first thing I want to say to you is that I'm sorry," the former"Suits" actress said, acknowledging that young people are having"a different version of that same type of experience" now."I'm so sorry that you have to grow up in a world where this is still present."
The duchess said there is one positive comparison in looking back at the LA riots and what's going on today. The bright side, in her eyes, is seeing"how people came together." "Now you get to be part of rebuilding," she said, telling the graduates we will"rebuild and rebuild and rebuild ... because when the foundation is broken, so are we."
