In a heated exchange this week, Cardi B took to Twitter Spaces to call out conservative commentator Candace Owens for her remarks on the tragic murder of Sonya Massey. Massey, an Illinois woman, was fatally shot by a police officer after calling 911 about a prowler. Owens, in a polarizing statement, argued that the incident was not racially motivated and cautioned Black Americans against seeing it as such.

Owens asserted that unarmed white Americans are statistically more likely to be shot by police than Black Americans. “Police officers are human beings; there are mistakes that happen,” she said. “To suggest that this situation happened simply because she was Black is pointedly ridiculous.”

Cardi B, known for her outspoken nature, fiercely rejected Owens’ claims, criticizing her lack of empathy. “Today she said something so disturbing about the Sonya Massey case,” Cardi began. “For you to sit here and say that ‘Oh, not everything is racial’… Girl, shut up.”

Cardi continued, emphasizing the apparent injustice: “You don’t feel one little bit of empathy, a little bit of sympathy for how this woman died? There was no argument, no conflict, no raised voice, and she got shot. He knew in the back of his head because she was a Black woman that he was going to get away with it.”

The rapper’s passionate defense highlights the ongoing debate over racial bias in law enforcement and the broader societal implications.
