Azealia Banks slammed Candace Owens for calling Juneteenth “lame” after the outspoken pundit made the remark.
This comes after President Joe Biden signed a bill establishing Juneteenth, the annual commemoration of the end of slavery in the United States, a federal holiday.
In response to the president’s bill, Candace tweeted:
Juneteenth is soooo lame.
Democrats really need to stop trying to repackage segregation.I’ll be celebrating July 4th and July 4th only.
I’m American. 🇺🇸

However, Banks wasn’t having it, as she took to Instagram to release a lengthy statement to Owens.
Her words below: “According to this logic, on July 4th 1776 you would still be enslaved, most likely on the verge of starvation due to all of America’s food supply having been prioritized for the war, while you hand sew American flags and struggle to wet nurse some depressed 24year old white widows sickly child until your nipples are chapped and dry whereafter you will be whipped by her 80 year old uncle for your own malnourishment and inability to produce milk, then sent to toil over a wood burning stove- blistering your hands while forced to make a peasantly meal of biscuits and gravy.
“You will be watched closely by her irate, sunburned and whisky soaked 80 year old uncle to be sure you do not sneak a single biscuit or fingerfull of roux to yourself. after you’ve watched everyone eat, you will be sent to do the cleaning up. Your last task will be brushing the stressed and balding white widows hair to prepare for her sleeping bonnet, a deep rest in her comfortable canopy bed. Next your final descent down the stairs and out the back door where you proudly sleep on a bed bug-infested pile of hay in a 6×4 cabin you share with 4 other slaves. Happy Independence Day @realcandaceowens.”
following Azealia’s address, Owens took to Twitter to reassert her stance, tweeting:
Every single race has been enslaved at some point in human history. Africans are STILL enslaved today.
This is not a holiday. This is more emotional training from Democrats to see ourselves as somehow separate from America.Independence Day is July 4th.
The end.
