Candace Amber Owens Farmer (néeOwens; born April 29, 1989) is an American conservative political commentator, author, activist, and television presenter.[2][3]
Described as "the new face of black conservatism",[4] Owens has been recognized for her pro-Trump activism despite being initially critical of the former president of the United States Donald Trump and the Republican Party.[5] She is known for her criticism of Black Lives Matter.[6][7][8] Owens served as the communications director for the conservative advocacy group Turning Point USA between 2017 and 2019.[9] In 2018, Owens co-founded Blexit along with former Tucson police officer Brandon Tatum.[10][11][12] In 2021, she joined The Daily Wire and began hosting Candace, a political talk show.[13] She was dismissed from The Daily Wire in March 2024 following a series of comments perceived as antisemitic and months of tensions with co-host Ben Shapiro and other Daily Wire staff over their differing views on the Israel-Hamas war.[14][15][16][17][18]
Politically, Owens has expressed skepticism about the extent of white supremacy's impact on society and has voiced opposition to both COVID-19 lockdowns and COVID-19 vaccines. She has promoted numerous conspiracy theories.[19]
