Celeb News: King Kanye Leaves Barneys in Confederate Jacket

In his effort to take back the Confederate flag as he so eloquently puts it, Kanye West was spotted in L.A. recently wearing a confederate flag jacket as he left Barneys.

It presents an ironic image to see the outspoken hip-hop star wearing a jacket donning a flag historically known to represent a symbol of hate and discrimination leaving a store that was recently accused of racial profiling.

Adding to the irony of it all, the rapper went on a rant about the Barneys racial profiling incident on the Las Vegas stop of his now postponed tour. He connected the alleged racial discrimination the two customers experienced to the lyrics of his song, "New Slaves."

Quote:

That’s that broke n*gga racism. Don’t touch anything in the store. Excuse me that’s that, “can I help you sir?” That’s that racial profiling out in front of Barneys and sh*t. Talking about, “did you steal that?” And it’s that rich n*gga racism, that’s come in… come in Ye please buy more, please buy more… I know you just got some money and can’t wait to spend it n*gga.

West left the store in this black Lambo.

He's so out of touch with reality. This is such a middle finger for what our ancestors fought for.

Our ancestors fought for access to education and protection under the law. Look at the Harlem Renaissance, there were dozens of black artists who appropiated symbols of white power as an attempt to subvert and challenge them. Kanye is just doing his job as an artist. Saying he's giving a middle finger to his ancestors is a cheap shot that isn't even legitimate.

You just don't like (or understand) Hip-hop or black culture so you can shut up now.

KanYe!

Hip Hop culture is not black culture it's Coonery. Don't tell me to shut up i have my right to speak my opinion . This fool is doing this for attention he don't care about black people at all. The fact that he put down the First Lady in favor of Kim speaks volume. Yall drink these celebs kool aid and take everything they say at face value. You are a bunch of sheep.

HandsOn

Why yall mad at me. it's not My fault I live in a KKK town. My next door neighbor flew this flag in his front yard. I used to see it everyday. This one guy wearing a shirt with this flag on it ran up to me and said boo. Trying to scare me. I don't want to see this ish let alone Black people wearing. It's dumb to me . Sorry if I offended yall but they are racist as hell down here. On our town forum they talk about sending black people to concentration camps. The racism is real here and I don't think taking this flag back is a good thing.

The pink triangle was a symbol against gays in the holocaust and then we embraced it after the war so I really don't see what's so bad about this
