Kanye West's Donda Academy is facing a lawsuit from two former teachers who allege disturbing practices at the private Christian school. The teachers, who are black, claim that they were fired for raising concerns about education, health, and safety violations, as well as for their race.

Perhaps most concerning, the suit alleges that students at the Donda Academy were subject to bullying and physical assaults with no consequences and that the school's leadership threatened the teachers when they tried to report these incidents. The teachers claim that Kanye did not allow them to discuss these problems with him directly.

The teachers also allege that West had several other bizarre rules, such as forbidding Nike and Adidas brands, not allowing any artwork to be hung on the walls, and banning jewellery because he didn't like it.
