Tina Knowles has spoken out in defense of her family after Kanye West shared a disturbing post about her grandchildren, Rumi and Sir. The post, which was since-deleted, included racist and ageist language.
In response to the post, Tina Knowles posted a video on Instagram, where she shared a corny joke and expressed frustration with “ignorance and evil”. She also invoked her faith, saying that God would protect her family from harm.
Kanye West later explained that he deleted his tweet due to concerns about it getting shut down, but has since made repeated antisemitic posts on his account. Tina Knowles appeared at a summit in New York City where she discussed the importance of family values and being true to oneself.
The singer is set to release her memoir, Matriarch, later this year. She hopes to tell her own story and correct misconceptions about her family.
