Outspoken Black Commentator Denounces the Lionization of George Floyd
“Confession: #GeorgeFloyd is neither a martyr or a hero. But I hope his family gets justice.”
In a powerful Twitter video carrying the above caption, commentator and political activist Candace Owens explains why she does not believe George Floyd should be held up as a hero or martyr, despite the injustice done to him by police. She describes Floyd as a “career criminal” and asks her viewers to “imagine” being the pregnant black woman who was robbed at gunpoint when Floyd and accomplices forced their way into her home. “George Floyd takes a gun and points it to your stomach threatening you,” Owens recounted. “You are screaming and crying for your life.”
