Kathy Barnette: Mom, Veteran, Senatorial Candidate

PITTSBURGH, Pa (PTTP) – Mom, Veteran, Author, and now senatorial candidate, Kathy Barnette is proudly running Republican in hopes of showing that when you break boundaries and stereotypes you become a victor not a victim. 

Political Reporter, Maggie McLeod, discusses some of Barnette’s most controversial topics about what it’s like being a black Republican woman. 

“They were having all these black lives rallies,  Black Lives Matter rallies in my county, and they never asked me to come and speak right. And I’m black! But I’m the wrong kind of black person.  I’m a conservative black person. And that’s not the message they want black people to hear.”
