Former Teacher Sues Kanye West Over Allegations

Kanye West, also known as Ye, allegedly planned to teach students at his now-closed Donda Academy how to march and shoot guns, a claim made by former teacher Cecilia Hailey. She described the environment at the school as chaotic and likened it to a 'zoo,' emphasizing that any resistance to West's requests was met with silence. Hailey expressed her disbelief at the idea of third graders learning to use firearms, stating that it was unacceptable and disconnected from education, even drawing unsettling comparisons to Nazi practices. Additionally, she highlighted significant bullying issues within the school, with students often seeking refuge during physical altercations. Hailey's lawsuit against West is set for trial in April 2025, where she seeks redress for wrongful termination and alleged racial discrimination. A second teacher corroborated Hailey's claims, noting that there were discussions about hiring an instructor for tactical training at the academy.
