Given his anti-semitic remarks, Donda Academy started by Kanye West will shut down “immediately.” The principal of the school, Jason Angell, informed parents in an email that was acquired by The London Times. It read, “at the discretion of our founder, Donda Academy will close for the remainder of the 2022-2023 school year effective immediately.”
“There is no school,” Angell added. In August, West founded Donda Academy in Simi Valley, California, using the name of his late mother. In a deleted tweet to Jason Lee, CEO of Hollywood Unlocked, the rapper Ye, as he is now called, affirmed the information: “Here’s the clout you’re looking for… My school is being shut down.”

Kanye West: Antisemitism Scandal
Earlier this month, West tweeted to say he was “going death con 3 ON JEWISH PEOPLE” before alleging he wasn’t “Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also”. He added, “You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda”.
Twitter has brought down the post. It happened after he claimed in an Instagram post that record producer Sean “Diddy” Combs was under the authority of “the Jewish people.”
“Ima use you as an example to show the Jewish people that told you to call me that no one can threaten or influence me. I told you this was war. Now gone get you some business,” the screenshot read that Ye shared on Instagram.

The Aftermath Of Ye’s Comments
Kanye has lost all his major business deals with major brands like Adidas, Balenciaga, Gap, and other brands declared they would no longer collaborate with the artist, and several of Ye’s commercial and fashion partners severed their connections with him. Additionally, Ye’s Instagram and Twitter accounts have been restricted.
Donda Academy has previously been disqualified from taking part in a number of high-school basketball events. The New York Times reported that invitations to the Play-By-Play Classic in Kentucky and the Hoophall Classic in Massachusetts were revoked.
Ye has been facing a huge amount of backlash for his recent behavior, which also includes bullying Pete Davidson, whom his ex-wife Kim Kardashian dated. All of this might just be the beginning of Ye’s downfall era.
