Here’s What Candace Owens Said
Candace Owens appeared as a guest on ‘The Breakfast Club’ for an episode published via YouTube on Thursday, March 21. About 26 minutes into the hour-long interview, Charlamagne Tha God seemingly asked Owens about her “speaking a lot about the Black family” but marrying a white man.
The host explained that some people believe Black individuals should marry within their race because it promotes the group’s economic stability.

“It’s always very interesting for me to hear this paradox of Black people who will argue that the system is racist, then make an argument like this… that Black Americans and white Americans shouldn’t be marrying,” she explained. “I think the greatest thing ever is when people come together on the basis of who they love and get married.”
Owens explained that she never thought of her husband “as a race.” Or their children as “mixed.”
“I married the person that it made the most sense for me to marry,” she explained. “…It was difficult for me to find a partner that was a challenge to me… with my same interests… I fell in love with my husband just because I think he is one of the most brilliant people ever. I love him very much and the stuff that we talk about, there’s no other person I could have married.”

The Commentator Recently Caused A Stir After Speaking On THIS Rap Song
As The Shade Room previously reported, Owens also sparked reactions when she shared her thoughts on Ice Spice’s song ‘Think U The S**t (Fart)’ earlier this year.
“Think you the sh*t, b***h? You not even the fart. I be going hard, like?” Ice Spice raps in the single.
In response, Owens dropped some harsh words about the song, comparing it to the downfall of society.
“If you’re wondering whether or not it’s a good song, what do you think? It’s called ‘Think U The S**t (Fart).’ Now I think we can all admit that we’ve fallen as a society. I mean, I wouldn’t say that was Mozart or Beethoven,” she said.
