Kanye West Faces Lawsuit Over Alleged Discriminatory Behavior At School

Kanye West makes a point as he holds his first rally in support of his presidential bid in North Charleston

A new lawsuit has been filed alleging disturbing behavior by Kanye West towards students at Donda Academy. The lawsuit claims that West threatened to shave the heads of students and even lock them in cages. The plaintiff, Trevor Phillips, states that he experienced severe discrimination, harassment, and retaliation while working for West's design company, Yeezy, which later extended to work for West's now-closed school.

According to the lawsuit, West reportedly expressed antisemitic views in front of students, including promoting conspiracies and making derogatory remarks about Jewish people. It is alleged that West told two children he wanted to shave their heads and planned to install a jail at the school.

Further details from the lawsuit include an incident at Nobu Malibu in December 2022, where West allegedly made disparaging comments about Jewish individuals, describing them as 'miserly' and even praising Hitler as 'an innovator.'

This lawsuit sheds light on concerning behavior attributed to Kanye West and raises questions about the environment at Donda Academy. The case is still developing, and further information may emerge as the legal process unfolds.
