Here is the Real Reason Why Candace Owens is Defending Daniel Cameron

Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron has been facing heightened backlash since announcing the grand jury decision in the Breonna Taylor case. But now fellow Black Republican Candace Owens has come to his defense. “For me, it’s absolutely infuriating to watch. I’ve been on the receiving end of the same sort of attack,” said the conservative pundit. “Here’s what’s so fundamentally wrong and backward about it… if you actually look at what they are saying and what the deeper implications are here, it’s there is a right way, a correct way and a wrong way to be Black,” Owens explained. “Ironically, that’s the very definition of racism and it’s coming from the liberals who like to say that they see racism everywhere but they can’t recognize it when it’s coming out of their own mouth.” She also opined that Cameron “did the right thing by ignoring the various pressures coming from culture and the mainstream media and for that you are seeing him being socially lynched and stripped of his identity because he acted professionally and rationally.” Cameron is the commonwealth’s first Black attorney general and also the first Republican to hold the position in more than 70 years. But unlike Owens, as we previously reported, activist Tamika Mallory believes Cameron is a traitor to his race and deserves all the ire he’s attracted lately. Friday, while speaking at a press conference held by Benjamin Crump –– an attorney representing Taylor’s family– Mallory minced no words when sharing her thoughts about the Black Republican. She believes him to be complicit in white supremacy. Mallory added that Cameron was removed from the Black community, concluding, “That is who you are, Daniel Cameron. You are a coward. You are a sellout. And you were used by the system to harm your own mama, your own Black mama. We have no respect for you, no respect for your Black skin because all of our skin folk ain’t our kinfolk. And you do not belong to Black people at all.” https://thegrio.com/2020/09/25/candace-owens-daniel-cameron-victim-of-racism-breonna-taylor/
