The post was in response to Karefa-Johnson, who called out the T-shirt with the slogan “White Lives Matter” with which Kanye West and models appeared at the show of his brand’s 9th collection, YEEZY “pure violence”.
In her lawsuit the photographer claims that after Kanye West used her photo, she can no longer promote the image or make money from it.
