        Not every single slave wanted to escape the plantation... THAT is the choice Kanye is talking about... No rocket science...

        Maybe @kanyewest remarks were to start a dialogue about controversial topics & his comments were taken out of context.

        Do black Americans feel the same about Kanye West as I, a white American, feel about Ted Nugent and Kid Rock? (I'd add Scott Baio but he's pretty much a non entity, though still seriously embarrassing).pic.twitter.com/xGSPJIRp4P

        He needs to go sit down somewhere. He’s only adding to the mixed up weak minds of society.

        You low intelligence scum cannot possibly understand the vision Kanye has, and you’re racist for questioning him.

        Me either but yes I agree. People were enslaved by fear once the few were no longer afraid they were brave enough to make a “choice” to gain their freedom by any means necessary. Just like it’s a choice to only pick parts of his comments to make him seem less than sane

        Misinterpretation...they are all after him because he claimed his love for Trump. Listen him carefully. He didn't say that. Thinking about slavery after 400 years sounds like a choice that what West tried to say. He is right .
