Kanye West is supporting his hometown amid nationwide protests against police brutality. Hours after the rapper’s rep confirmed his $2 million donation to the families of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor, West was spotted hitting the streets with a crowd of demonstrators in Chicago.
Video clips surfaced online showing the Chicago native walking alongside protestors through the streets of the city’s South Side. In one of the clips, West is shown near the front of the procession, although it’s not clear how long he stayed.
