Instagram suspends Kanye West after slur against Trevor Noah ... (Africanews English)

Kanye West has been suspended from Instagram for 24 hours after he used a racial slur to describe South African TV presenter and comedian Trevor Noah.

"You’re an indelible part of my life Ye. Which is why it breaks my heart to see you like this. I don’t care if you support Trump and I don’t care if you roast Pete. I do however care when I see you on a path that’s dangerously close to peril and pain … Don’t ever forget, the biggest trick racists ever played on black people was teaching us to strip each other of our blackness whenever we disagree…" According to a spokesperson for Instagram’s parent company Meta, the suspension was due to West violating the company’s policy on hate speech, bullying and harassment.

'Daily Show' host Trevor Noah was the most recent target of West, who allegedly re-wrote the lyrics to peaceful song 'Kumbaya' to include a racial slur.

“This was on my daughters back pack when I was ‘allowed’ to see her last week,” West wrote. In additional posts to Instagram (again, since deleted), West alleged he was being kept away from his children. Noah responded to West’s post, writing: “You’re an indelible part of my life Ye. Which is why it breaks my heart to see you like this. “What she’s going through is terrifying to watch,” he said. Those things can be happening at the same time.” Noah was critical of West, 44, saying his constant social media posts about West’s now-ex-wife Kardashian were harassment.

Kanye West suspended from Instagram after slur against Trevor Noah (The Guardian)

West used racial slur after Noah criticised his behaviour in the wake of the former's divorce from Kim Kardashian.

After West criticised her parenting, Kardashian wrote in February: “Divorce is difficult enough on our children and Kanye’s obsession with trying to control and manipulate our situation so negatively and publicly is only causing further pain for all. Kardashian filed for divorce in January 2021, and she was declared legally single by a US court earlier this month. You’re an indelible part of my life Ye. Which is why it breaks my heart to see you like this.
