Kanye West and Bianca Censori have sparked further controversy after being accused of clothing his daughter, North, in “racist” attire. Photos have emerged of the 10-year-old dressed in Kanye’s unreleased Yeezy Season 9 drop from 2022. North is clad in a white sweatshirt with a pointy hood that covers her face save for two little holes in her eyes in the photo. North’s hoodie soon drew analogies to clothes notoriously worn by Ku Klux Klan members, notably the pointed hood that covers the wearer’s whole face, providing the racist group’s members with anonymity. Furthermore, white is the group’s hallmark colour. Many critics resorted to social media to express their displeasure with North’s sweatshirt.
Some speculated that if the hoodie had been a different colour, it might not have aroused such a strong reaction. North’s mother, Kim Kardashian, who has previously spoken out against her ex-husband’s racism, has not replied to the outrage. “It’s extremely perplexing for me that it’s so different than the individual who I married because that’s who I loved and who I remember,” she stated on an episode of The Kardashians earlier this year, in which she addressed Kanye’s recent behaviour. “This whole situation is sad, and I do not know what to do emotionally,” Kim added. “I am conflicted because I do not want to be part of the downfall of my children’s father.”

Kanye West and Bianca Censori are under fire for putting his oldest daughter, North, in an allegedly racist outfit reminiscent of Ku Klux Klan regalia. Kanye clothed North in unreleased Yeezy items from his Season 9 drop, including a white zip-up jacket with a pointed hood that covers her face and little eye openings, according to new images. Fans instantly pointed out that the outfit resembles a white Ku Klux Klan hood. The pointed design of the hood and the emphasis on covering the wearer’s face to provide anonymity are similar to white nationalist groups. A full-body covering morph suit and hooded jumpers were featured in Season 9 released in October 2022. “I live in the South and I personally do not like it,” a Reddit user said.
Maybe I wouldn’t feel the same if it was purple or blue.” Many fans thought that at the very least, a colour change was required to make the sweater less objectionable. After all, the white hood is a KKK member’s distinctive outfit. Other followers noted that the Internet is eternal and that a photo like this may now follow North for the rest of her life. According to them, Kanye has now exposed North to years of potential retaliation and safety issues. One fan requested that child protective services be contacted. Some followers brought up Kim Kardashian, expressing concern about her ‘hands-off’ attitude towards Kanye’s parenting. Kim has traditionally sought to respect Kanye’s involvement with their children’s life. “Kim deserves praise for not allowing her problems with Kanye to affect her children, but at this point she has to say no,” says one admirer. Putting your child in what is effectively a KKK hoodie is going too far.” North’s mother, Kim Kardashian, who has previously spoken out against her ex-husband’s racism, has not replied to the outrage.
