Candace Owens claims there's 'nothing' Black about Kamala Harris and Barack Obama: 'I fully reject it'

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Candace Owens recently expressed her discontent with former president Barack Obama and Vice President Kamala Harris identifying as Black.

In an appearance on 'Piers Morgan Uncensored', the right-wing media personality took issue with Obama campaigning for Harris by encouraging Black men to vote for her, labeling this approach as "fundamentally racist," OK Magazine reported. 

Candice Owens claims there's 'nothing' Black about Barack Obama and Kamala Harris

"It is something Black people are right to be upset about," Candice Owens said during the show. "There’s nothing about Kamala Harris or Barack Obama, if we’re being frank, that is Black."

She described their efforts to connect with Black voters as "very cartoonish," arguing that Obama’s background doesn’t provide him the credibility to discuss the Black experience. She pointed out that he was raised primarily by his White grandparents and attended a predominantly White college.

Owens also claimed that Harris lived the "Indian experience" and was proud of that until she entered politics. "To me, it seems they’re wearing blackface," she remarked, before adding, "I can’t sort through all of Kamala’s accents. I don’t trust somebody who slips through so many personalities. It’s not OK, and I fully reject it."

Candice Owens calls Eminem a 'fraud' for advising Black voters to vote for Kamala Harris 

Additionally, Candice Owens slammed Obama and Eminem for endorsing Harris at a rally in Detroit. On her podcast, she said, "There’s our boy Barry, who grew up with a trans nanny, pretends to be Black, speaking with the brothas."

She criticized Eminem, saying he is "cosplaying as some rapper who has been through things, even though he hasn’t touched his own door handles in 40 years."

She continued, "Obviously, since it wasn’t enough for Barry to tell us what the brothers should be doing, we’re going to add on this guy who has a complex and has made essentially three albums dissing Trump. He’s going to come out and tell Black people how to act, which makes perfect sense! Eminem is such a fraud."

In a similar vein, Donald Trump has questioned Harris' ethnic identity in the past. During a National Association of Black Journalists event, he claimed he "didn't know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black."

He added, "Now she wants to be known as Black. So I don’t know, is she Indian, or is she Black? I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t, because she was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn—she went—she became Black. Somebody should look into that."
