    kanye’s mental illness is very well documented so there are instances that can and should be explained by that. ppl trying to act like it doesn’t influence a large chunk of his actions are delusional

    in this case tho he’s just being his normal headass self, this was something he planned for a while. doesn’t make it any less headass tho

    I mean bro we have English last names but we come from Africa. I see where you think “slave name” implies that were less than but I don’t view it that way. I’m proud of being AA regardless

    Personally I wouldn’t change my name cause I don’t associate it w slavery. I associate w my family but that doesn’t change the ugly truth that it was given to my fam by a European

    That’s exactly what I’m saying. We shouldn’t be applying it to slavery. And see my reply above

    no you’re not you can’t erase your lineage with a name change and also it is a slave name. west definitely not some s*** his ancestors had as their last name before they were shipped over. you just arguing to argue

    No, I’m not. Look at other reply’s.

    How would I find my last name? I’d be taking some African name that I know nothing about no? And it’s not even disrespectful as that’s of course our motherland, but I’m African American. We’ve been looked down upon by all other races and ethnicities. So why not embrace what I am and carry on my culture and teachings with my last name? And that association no longer applies.

    we live in 2021 my brother, last name association is far from the only method we have of connecting lineages.

    Malcom is stating we don’t truly KNOW what we are, that’s the whole dilemma of the “African American”. We know what we’re taught but not of who we truly are as a people. Key phrase is “as a people”

    This topic gets deeper the more it goes but I advice having more of an open mind to this tbh

    I mean what Ye is saying isn’t a original thought, he’s echoing thoughts of intelligent minds before him but I guess as long as you understand where ppl are coming from with this then atleast there’s a chance

    Otherwise you purposely become Ignorant

    Why do you need a judges approval to begin with for a name change

    How a stranger gonna tell you what name YOU can go by

    It’s easier to change your gender than it is your name
