Kanye faces backlash for dressing up North in racist clothes

Kanye West

Rapper Kanye West continues to spark controversies. After his anti-Semitic views were condemned, he has now been blasted by fans for dressing 10-year-old daughter North in clothes that appear to be "racist".

New photos reveal that West dressed North up in unreleased Yeezy clothes from his Season 9 drop, including a white zip-up hoodie with a pointed hood that covers her face and has small eye holes.

Fans immediately pointed out that the clothing looks like a white Ku Klux Klan hood. The pointed shape of the hood and the focus on covering the wearer's face to offer anonymity are close parallels to white supremacist group.

The Season 9 drop happened in October 2022 and included hooded jumpers as well as a full body covering morphsuit. This "KKK aesthetic" piece, as one fan dubbed it, didn't make the cut for that particular drop. West is facing intense backlash, especially, for including his daughter in the clothes.

Another fan wrote, "I don't like it. Makes me mad his little daughter is wearing it and she doesn't understand the disdain for this look. Maybe if it was purple or blue, I wouldn't feel the same."
