Reese Waters: Candace Owens Black Conservative Turning Points BLExit Tour Packed Up By HBCU

[TheBlackAdder]

Candace Owens cancels FAMU Homecoming appearance for Black Conservative ‘Blexit’ Tour. Owens opted to forego her appearance at Florida A&M University’s homecoming which was part of her “Blexit” tour to recruit Black conservatives.

Founded in 2018 by Owens, Blexit has become Owens’ platform as a Black conservative commentator to build a coalition of like-minded individuals. It remains unclear if the death of Charlie Kirk, an ally of Owens and fellow far-right conservative, had influenced the decision to postpone the tour date.

The Tallahassee Democrat also reported that the tour stop’s speakers included rapper Topher, activist Savannah Craven, and members of the BLEXIT Student Movement team in addition to Candace Owens. However, backlash against the FAMU appearance, especially during its homecoming, began swiftly after its announcement.

It's so bad that Bowie State & Howard are adding extra security measures to address agitators during homecoming.
