Conservative commentator Candace Owens joined Mark Steyn on Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight and slammed the US education system for their woke propaganda, said it's becoming "increasingly more bizarre" as activists pressure Ivy League schools to select students based on skin color instead of merit.
"They're saying that black Americans aren't smart enough to get into these schools by their own merit," Candace Owens expressed. "You could identify this as the bigotry of low expectations."
"It's worse than the bigotry of low expectations. Just the bigotry of no expectations in reality, because we already have affirmative action. We haven't done away with affirmative action. So they're already more likely to give a spot in a school to a black American who has grades that are lower than a white American," Owens added. "That already exists and they're saying that's not even enough."

The host of the Candace Owens Show on Daily Wire expressed that removing students that earned their spot from Ivy League schools just because they're white, and to replace them with black students to appease the 'woke,' will make the schools forgo their Ivy League status.
"As we're focused on this woke learning, the countries that are looking to take us over in the east are advancing," Owens continued.
"With liberals and progressives at the helm, it is certainly becoming an increasingly more systematically racist country. That's what they want. That's what they're asking for. That's exactly what this open letter is demanding. 'We want more systemic racism. We want people to focus on skin color and make sure people are segregated according to their skin color.' They want every action in this country to be informed by the color of people's skin," Owens expressed on Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight.
"When a white person looks at me and says, 'I have privileged because I'm white,' that's racist. You're saying to me, 'Candice, you're a black girl. So you don't understand I'm better than you in this society.' That's the very definition of racism. And that's exactly what wokeism is. It's not even a close cousin to racism. It is it by a different name," the Daily Wire host said.
