Kanye West’s Donda Academy has been sued by two former employees in a wrongful termination lawsuit that alleges the school violated a number of health, safety, and educational codes.
In court documents obtained by Rolling Stone, plaintiffs Cecilia Hailey and her daughter Chekarey Byers claimed they experienced racial discrimination and had wages illegally held from them. The women, who say in the lawsuit they were the only Black female teachers at the school, alleged they were terminated from the private Christian school in March 2023 in retaliation for reporting code violations.
