===White Lives Matter shirt=== On October 3, 2022 Kanye West wore a shirt featuring a text saying "White Lives Matter" during a fashion show of Yeezy SZN 9 in Paris. The controversial nature of the shirt caused an uproar in social media and news outlets, as the phrase has been often used in opposition to the Black Lives Matter movement in 2020 and since. Kanye took it to Instagram to explain his reasoning behind the shirt. He wanted to both make a case that "All lives matter", as he believed the BLM movement was unjustly focused solely upon itself, not realizing the system is fixed not only against black people, but against all people. Other then that, Kanye stated "Everyone know that Black Lives Matter was a scam now it's over you're welcome". All of this resulted in Kanye having an interview with [[Tucker Carlson]], in which he further talked about his statement. Furthermore, he quite clearly proved himself in it as a compassionate, honest and insightful man, who cares a lot about the black community - for example, one of the most popular clips from the interview is when Tucker asks "Why do you think the statement All Lives Matter, if God intended them all to matter, would be deemed as controversial?", Kanye responds "Because the same people that have stripped us of our identity and labeled us a color have told us what it means to be black.". Earlier, he talks about statistics that claim in New York half of black children get aborted.
