Kanye West continues to stir up controversy with his latest pro-life tweet that he quickly deleted.
We kicked f Wednesday (July 8) with a bang as Kanye West shared his political aspirations with the world. The Birthday Party candidate sat down with Forbes for an exclusive interview where he stated that he was no longer a Trump supporter, Planned Parenthood was created by White supremacists to target Black communities, and revealed that Michelle Tidball, a preacher, would be his running mate.
Planned Parenthood snapped back at pro-lifer Yeezy by making a statement through TMZ. “Black women are free to make our own decisions about our bodies and pregnancies, and want and deserve to have access to the best medical care available,” said Nia Martin-Robinson, the Director Black Leadership and Engagement at Planned Parenthood’s Headquarters. “Any insinuation that abortion is Black genocide is fensive and infantilizing. The real threat to Black communities’ safety, health, and lives stems from lack access to quality, affordable health care, police violence and the criminalization reproductive health care by anti-abortion opposition.”
Not long ago, Kanye West took to his Twitter account to share a photo a six-month-old fetus inside the womb with a caption that read, “These souls deserve to live.” It was only up for 15-or-so minutes before the rapper deleted the tweet without an explanation, but we’re sure we’ll be hearing much more from Ye in the days to come. The removal the tweet didn’t stop the internet from reacting, so check that out below.
