We should NEVER immortalize or worship ANYONE who promotes anti-Semitism, racism, xenophobia, homophobia or misogyny. Call it cancel culture if you want but I call it challenging the bigotry that's tearing humanity apart and is harming innocent people.202@RuTheTailor I say it's a good thing.

Another Fulton Market mural, located at 1215 W., has also been defaced, with the word “trash” written across the rapper’s body.The mural, created by Hyde Park artist Chris Devins, was inspired by the “old Kanye,” where the Praise God rapper could be seen wearing a silver watch, a black suit and a pair of sunglasses.Ernest Owens@MrErnestOwensFACT: Before Kanye West was "the face of Anti-Semitism," he was one of the hip-hop faces of misogynoir, anti-Blackness, Trumpism, and slavery-denial. And y'all still gave him contracts, documentaries, endorsements, clothing deals, and millions that became billions. Shame.6731614709FACT: Before Kanye West was "the face of Anti-Semitism," he was one of the hip-hop faces of misogynoir, anti-Blackness, Trumpism, and slavery-denial. And y'all still gave him contracts, documentaries, endorsements, clothing deals, and millions that became billions. Shame.Following his mural being defaced, Devins claimed in an interview that he stands with the Jewish community and does not condone Kanye West’s statements. However, he believed that West’s statements should not stop him from expressing his artistic freedom. He also raised concerns over public art being thrashed upon, stating:“George Washington held slaves, should we remove all of his statues? Christopher Columbus’ ‘discovery’ of the U.S. led to the slaughter of millions of the original people on this land. Should we remove all of his statues around the U.S. and cancel his holiday?”Devins further added:“Does Kanye West’s erasure from our society prove his point?”As West publicly went about with his anti-Semitic sentiments, he was simultaneously banned from Twitter and Instagram. His controversial Paris Fashion Week antics, wherein he was seen wearing a "White Lives Matter" T-shirt, only added fuel to the fire.As the backlash against the 45-year-old rapper continued to worsen, multiple companies dropped their partnerships with him including Adidas, GAP, JPMorgan Chase, talent agency CAA, Balenciaga, Foot Locker, United Talent Agency and Cohen Clair Lans Greifer Thorpe & Rottenstreich among others.On Wednesday, October 26, the rapper was also reportedly escorted out of Sketchers’ California-headquarters after showing up unannounced.
