Kim Kardashian says she decided to become a lawyer because her kids “don’t have as good of a chance” as white children if they were to get arrested.
Kim was a recent guest on Hillary and Chelsea Clinton on their Apple TV+ series “Gutsy.” During their conversation, Kim explained the motive behind her becoming a lawyer. According to the entrepreneur, her four children that she shares with Kanye West were the main reason.
“My kids were there every time I opened my results,” she said, referencing the “baby bar” examined that she failed three times before passing in 2021.
“They saw me cry the best tears of happiness that like, I did it,” Kim continued. “I mean, that is one of the reasons that I just fight so hard. Because my kids, if they were to get arrested, just don’t have as good of a chance if I were to get arrested, if you were to get arrested.”
In 2017, Kim told Interview Magazine that she’s “very conscious” about raising a biracial daughter. She added that she often speaks to her children and her family’s children about race.
