Kanye West Called to Abolish Amendment that Ended Slavery: It's 'Slavery in Disguise'


by Tamar Auber | Sep 30th, 2018, 5:53 pm

Kanye West, or rather the artist formerly known as Kanye West since he now prefers to be referred to as YE, took to Twitter on Saturday to call for the abolition of the 13th Amendment.

The problem is, the 13th Amendment just so happens to be the amendment which abolishes slavery. West tweeted out his thoughts on the 13th Amendment complete with a photo of him in a MAGA hat.




He then followed it up with this additional thought suggesting “the 13th Amendment is slavery in disguise.”




Then, in a third tweet, he clarified he did not want to abolish the 13th Amendment, but amend it.
