Ye Calls Civil Rights Icon Rosa Parks A “Plant” During Unhinged Rant On Clubhouse

The rapper, formerly known as Kanye, has yet again put his Yeezy’s in his mouth. 

With Ye’s latest rant on Clubhouse, the “Jesus Walks” emcee referred to civil rights icon Rosa Parks as a “plant.” Ye’s unhinged rhetoric also called out former President Barack Obama and the legendary Malcolm X.

“Everybody know Obama not from Chicago. Since 1948, all of these movements… I know wokes going to be mad at me. But, all of these heroes, man. It’s only one; that’s Jesus Christ. You’re gonna find out something about MLK, something about JFK, something about Malcolm, Rosa Parks. We know Rosa Parks was a plant. Outrage is an economy.”

The 45-year-old rapper shared his wayward views on December 10 event with Wack 100. Listeners paid $20 to hear the “Faded” rapper go off on a tangent for almost an hour. This episode was subsequently what got him banned from Clubhouse after he allegedly made anti-Semitic remarks. 

His disrespectful commentary regarding Black icons was allowed, though.

 

“We took action to shut down a conversation on Saturday because it violated our policies. We also suspended those who violated the policies,” a Clubhouse statement said. “There’s absolutely no place for bullying, hate speech or abuse on our platform as explicitly stated in our Community Guidelines and Terms of Service.”
