Revision as of 03:59, August 19, 2021

Conscious black conservatives are self-proclaimed black conservatives who support identity politics when it benefits black people and prioritize their identity politics over their alleged conservatism. These people have a strong antipathy toward Blexit co-founders Candace Owens and Brandon Tatum: intensely jealous of their success and influence, they have viciously attacked both Tatum and Owens for race-mixing with white people.[1][2] Jennifer Oliver O'Connell even penned a column attacking them as Conservative, Inc. --- even though she writes a column for RedState[3] and the conscious black conservatives had a panel at CPAC 2021, which they used to implicitly insult Candace Owens.[2] Brandon Tatum describes himself and Owens as "people who are conservative...who happen to be black" and the conscious conservatives as "people who are black who happen to be conservative."[2] Joe Collins wrote a press release with the backwards premise that Owens and other black conservatives don't care about the inner cities and take every available opportunity to bash inner-city black Republicans and conservatives.[4] A major sticking point between the real black conservatives and the conscious black conservatives was the Ahmaud Arbery case --- some black conservatives, like Brandon Tatum, claimed that the black jogger was killed in self-defense, and these claims caused the conscious conservatives to lash out.[1][2] A second major sticking point was the Juneteenth National Holiday --- some black conservatives, like Candace Owens, as well as non-black conservatives claimed the federal holiday was an attempt by leftists to co-opt and restructure American history to fit the mould of the 1619 Project rather than the truth; these claims again caused the conscious conservatives to lash out, and this prompted the very public feud between Owens and Baltimore Congressional candidate Kimberly Klacik.[5] Other conscious black conservatives include Angela Stanton King, Maj Toure,[6] Kira Davis, Sonnie Johnson, Shemeka Michelle, and Felicia Killings.[3]
