Prince William and Princess Kate are in Wales today, Tuesday, to mark Black History Month—which is October in the U.K.

While in the country, the Prince and Princess of Wales are scheduled to meet with several groups to learn about the work they do to promote diversity.

A Kensington Palace press release shared by Omid Scobie on Twitter read, "To celebrate the 75th anniversary of the arrival of the HMT Empire Windrush to the U.K. and mark the start of Black History Month, The Prince and Princess of Wales will visit Cardiff to meet members of the Windrush generation and celebrate the work of diverse communities in the area.

"Whilst in the city, Their Royal Highnesses will also visit a local school to hear about the extensive range of opportunities they offer their pupils in the curriculum and the work they have been doing around the Windrush generation."

Scobie wrote, "Prince William and Princess Kate will mark the start of Britain's #BlackHistoryMonth with a visit to Wales, where they will carry out two engagements focusing on how young people of colour are creating positive change in the country."
