Shortly after she announced a scheme to help young people in their academic and athletic careers, she has come under fire by Dr. Umar Johnson, who often speaks on issues facing black people in the United States, during which he said she’s favoring white people.

Part of Kobe’s massive fortune was earned outside of the actual sport of basketball as he became a brand ambassador for Nike and one of the first megastars to sign a shoe deal with the firm.
