Bob Marley's granddaughter has blasted people criticizing her for her controversial decision to wear Kanye West's 'White Lives Matter' shirt - telling them 'you can't coax me into silence.'
Selah Marley, 23, modeled the provocative slogan shirts at Kanye's Paris Fashion Week runway show on Monday, but the move has since been branded a 'stunt,' rousing intense backlash.
She texted the rapper, 45, after receiving a slew of abuse online for her actions, saying she wants to 'continue the conversation with depth and clarity.'
The model also took to Instagram and slammed people criticizing her as being 'stuck in a hive mind mentality.'
She rebutted her critics, writing: 'You can not bully me, manipulate me, or coax me into silence. Nor will you bully me into being who you want me to be.'
And she said people who are sending her hate about the White Lives Matter shirt 'do what the group tells you to do and think what the group tells you to think.'
