Kanye West is doing his part by using his resources to help those in need. According to Us Weekly, following the tragic murder of George Floyd, the rapper has set up a college fund for his six-year-old daughter, Gianna.

Additionally, Kanye pledged to cover legal costs for the families of Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor, who were also killed by police in recent months. On top of that, US Weekly confirms that he also donated to $2 million to organizations linked to the death of all three victims. Surprisingly, however, he has been relatively quiet about the Black Lives Matter movement as of late.

His wife, Kim Kardashian, on the other hand, has been much more vocal. "For years, with every horrific murder of an innocent black man, woman, or child, I have always tried to find the right words to express my condolences and outrage," the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star wrote in a May 30 Instagram post. "But the privilege I am afforded by the color of my skin has often left me feeling like this is not a fight that I can truly take on my own. Not today, not anymore."

Kanye certainly causes controversy when supporting Donald Trump and wearing a MAGA hat, but it's good to see him contributing his wealth to anti-racism organizations and the families unfortunately affected by police brutality.
