Larry Elder, a Black politician, and a governor wannabe in California and CandanceOwens believes slave owners should have received reparations after the end of slavery. Larry Elder’s quest for governor in California has brought the ugliest claim and “Uncle Tom” dance to the Republican party.
Elder appeared on The Candace Owens Show back in July, but a specific clip of his appearance has been circulating on social media recently and causing outrage. Elder, who is running for governor in California, said that slave owners in America should have received reparations after slavery ended. He said this type of compensation was deserved because the slave owners lost their legal “property” after the passing of the 13th amendment and the end of the Civil War.
He justified his argument by referring to how the British slave owners were compensated when slavery ended after the passing of the Slavery Abolition Act in 1833.
“Did you know that slave owner were compensated?” Elder told Owens. “After they lost their quote-unquote ‘property’ the government compensated slave-owners.”
“Yeah, so when people talk about reparations, do they really want to have that conversation? Because, like it or not, slavery was legal. And so their legal property was taken away from them after the Civil War. You could make an argument that the people who are owed reparations are not only just Black people but also the people whose quote ‘property’ was taken away after the end of the Civil War.”
