West told Carlson that he had a "gut instinct" to wear the shirt.
I do things based on a feeling. He said it felt right. It's using a connection with God and a gut instinct.
In his monologue, West compared his decision to wear the "White Lives Matter" shirt to an ice skater's victory in the Triple A.
West told Carlson that his father sent him a text about the shirt and he thought it was funny.
West said his father told him that it was just a black man.
The reason I wrote "White Lives Matter" on a shirt is because they do. The obvious thing.
Some white supremacist groups have used the phrase as a slogan.
West said that the phrase was controversial because society wanted to separate the Black community.
During the interview, West referred to the Vogue editor and the model who criticized him for wearing the shirt in Paris.
The message of West's choices justifies mass incarceration, murder en mass, and even the advent of slavery.
