Candace Owens — The Myth of the "Coon": Black Lives Don't Matter

Hi everybody, my name is Candace Owens and you are watching my blog series, The Myth of the Coon. So foremost, why the word coon that is socially unacceptable? Why would someone who is African-Americans say the word coon? The 1st answer is because I can. The 2nd answer is because it's important that I do. To me, obviously, I believe that the word coon is a myth in the African-American community, which actually systematically, words like Uncle Tom and Koom, These words systematically oppress black people, which is quite ironic, when set against the fact that the people that champion these phrases tend to think that they are the core of the black evolvement and the black movement to give you guys a current event, A recent example of this in the press is the Colin Capernick, never-ending saga.

He did not get re-signed for the NFL. Michael Vick came out, not swinging, but just essentially said that if he had any advice for Colin. It would be for him to get a clean cut, and to go back to focusing on playing good football rather than politics. Michael Vick was attacked by a bunch of people, and he was referred to as an Uncle Tom or a coon, and Colin Capernick himself, tweeted out a diagnosis for him saying that he had Stockholm syndrome.

The insinuation being that he fell in love with his captors. He fell in love with white people and he was grateful to the white people, which is why he was speaking out against or just giving him suggestions that would ultimately help his career. Getting a haircut and showing up to work without causing any drama is generally good advice. Colin Kepernick was performing extremely well in the NFL until he decided that he was suddenly offended by the national anthem.

I don't think there is a single job in America, whether you are white, black, Spanish, regardless of your race, that you can show up in and consistently cause drama. Uh, and you will not eventually just be ousted, particularly retaining the sports. People will actually participate and go to sports and spend a lot of money and spend $12 for a hot dog to tune out, to not be involved in politics, to just be involved in the emotion of the sport, with, you know, absent any feelings or political affiliation.

Bottom line, I think that Michael Vick gave Collins some sound advice. But once again, the black community. When they see that, they say, oh, you're not one of us, you're one of them. We have to stop doing this because we need to evolve. We have to understand that showing up everywhere, angry or showing up everywhere, disappointed, is not going to get us anywhere in the world or in society that we would like to be. There are a lot of things that I believe in personally that would make me either a coon or an Uncle Tom, the 1st of them being that I don't support the Black Lives Matter movement whatsoever because the Black Lives Matter movement does not support me.

I think at a better title for that moment would be black deaths matter. They seem to protest, they seem to rage, and they seem to ruin, and they seem to support violence when a black person dies. What about when a black person lives? There are tons of black people that are trying to better themselves in their community. There are tons of black people that are disadvantaged by the homes that they are born into, and just not having money, these groups do not fund them.

They will pay for somebody's funeral, but they will not pay for somebody's college education. Do that, fund these movements like George Soros, who has more money than God, who has the money to take people straight out of the projects and put them into white community, to fund their education and to fund them, living in places that are better than the ones they are born, refuses to do so. Instead, He encourages and he solicits black violence.

He encourages us screaming in the street about black deaths, and he therefore encourages us getting arrested, ruining our own records, and making it impossible once again for us to thrive in society. I think that it is the most hypocritical movement on the planet and absolutely nothing to do with it. From a statistical standpoint, our black people being gunned down more often than white people. Absolutely not. The media will try to tell you so because there is more value in black people portraying this stereotype as angry than there is in you actually being educated and understanding the things that our community is actually facing.

As an enemy. One thing that is the biggest problem in the black community is our support, which is so ironic when you think about the fact that we continually support these democratic candidates, our support of planned parenthood, which has actually decreased the black population by 34%. Black babies are being slaughtered every single day, and yet we stand behind the lines of the people that, Fund that. They fund a black massacre.

There are no black voices standing up and saying, this is wrong. And if they do stand up and say it's wrong. They're dismissed as an Uncle Tom. I'm happy to be an auntie Tom to tell you guys a little bit more about what our community needs to do to better themselves. Everything starts and ends with education. We cannot better ourselves unless we understand what it is that we are up against. Of course, systematically black people were oppressed, but of course, you cannot just stick your hand out and ask for favors to get over that oppression, the most recent example of that, uh, people that we can look to, are the Jewish community, the Jewish community, had the odds stacked against them after World War II.

They were escaping Germany with the clothes on their back and look at where they are in the world right now. They did that by building a community, people that supported one another. There is no Jewish phrase for an uncle Tom. When somebody in their community made it and thought differently and made it a little further. They encouraged that person. And when that person got to the top, they hired from the underground of their communities, which is something that as black people, we have to learn from.

absolutely. I do not remember the name of the person whose video I watched, but he was an African-American leader, similar to an Al Sharpton. He basically acknowledged the fact that, No matter what you do for black people, if you do not marry a black person, then everything you did doesn't count and you are a traitor. When people speak to you like this, you need to turn off the TV. As a black community and as a black person.

I dated within my race. I did it outside of my race, your highest priority, um, as a human being, should be to marry someone who thinks like you, to marry someone that will bring you the successes that you desire in your own life and to turn off the absolute garbage that tells you differently. That is the end of my Candace Rant, about why I do not support black lives matter. Please stay tuned. I will be putting out.

Weekly videos. I guess the term nowadays is weekly vlogs and they will all be entitled The Myth of the Coon. Thank you guys so much for listening. And they will all be entitled The Midth of the Coon.
