Kanye West Pays For George Floyd Daughter’s College Fund
As it was reported yesterday, Chi-Town born rap mogul Kanye West donated $2 million to the families and legal teams of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and Geroge Floyd, however, Yeezus has also reportedly fully paid the tuition for George Floyd’s daughter, Gianna Floyd.
West has also donated to several Black owned businesses in his hometown, just in time for the arrests of the four Minnesota Police officers involved in the death of George Floyd.
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison announced just two days ago that Derek Chauvin, the ex-officer who had his knee on George Floyd’s neck, which killed him, had his charges upgraded to second degree murder while the other officers, Thomas Lane, J. Alexander Kueng and Tou Thao are all charged with aiding and abetting second-degree murder and abetting second-degree manslaughter.
Many other celebrities have taken their star power to the streets to stand in support of justice for George Floyd including Nick Cannon, Jamie Foxx, Michael B. Jordan, Trey Songz as well as Bun B and Trae The Truth, who organized a rally earlier this week in Floyd’s hometown of Houston to protest police violence.
