'Clowning Black Intelligence In Our Face': Candace Owens Faces Backlash After Revealing She Married Her White Husband Because He Matched Her IQ

Conservative activist Candace Owens spoke candidly about a mirage of topics including Black America and her interracial marriage after claiming Trump was better for Black Americans.

Owens is a Trump supporter, who has been critical of Black Lives Matter, and she once said that Black people are the "most murderous group in America." During her appearance on "The Breakfast Club" on March 21, host Charlamagne Tha God questioned her about her opinionated views about the Black family because of her marriage to a white man.

After Owens complained about liberals, "false feminism" and "anti-man" feminists ruining society by fracturing the Black family, Charlamagne noted that she was married to a white man.

"I want to go back to something you said earlier, 'cuz I know a lot of people hear you say, 'Well Candace, you're speaking a lot about, you know, the Black family but then you married a white man. Dr. Umar would have a huge problem with that. You familiar with Dr. Umar?" he said.

Dr. Umar is a Pan-Africanist who is infamous for his condemnation of interracial marriage. After Owens said she was unfamiliar with his argument, Charlamagne explained that Dr. Umar, "feels Black men should be with Black women" to grow economic wealth for Black families.

The conservative political commentator responded by bringing up the case of Loving v. Virginia, the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that resulted in ending laws that banned marriage between people of different races. Owens mistakenly referred to the case as Virginia v. Love.

"It's always very interesting to me to hear this paradox of Black people who will make an argument that, you know, the system is racist and then also make an argument like this," she replied. "Which is essentially making an argument for the Supreme Court to revisit Virginia versus love and basically say that Black Americans and white Americans shouldn't be marrying."

Owens went on to say that she married her white husband, George Farmer, because he was intellectually compatible with her.

"For me personally, I never thought of my husband as a race. It's, it is very interesting to me that I see people go, 'She's, she's married to a white man.' I look at my kids I'm not like, 'Oh my kids are mixed.' I married the person that it made the most sense for me to m
