A Day Without Immigrants': Some Oklahoma City restaurants close Monday in national event

February 03, 2025 0

 Businesses across the country, including in Oklahoma, will shut their doors Monday as part of a national movement.


The social media-driven campaign "A Day Without Immigrants" calls on immigrants to stay home from work, not take their children to school, and encourages businesses to close and people to refrain from shopping on Monday, Feb. 3.

The planned protest comes amid reported U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids across the country, which has raised fear among immigrant families. The first 'Day Without Immigrants' was held in February 2017, in protest of President Donald Trump's immigration plans during his first term, according to the LA Times.

Many businesses nationwide have reportedly closed in solidarity with the movement from coast to coast, including Washington DCMinnesotaSan Francisco and more.

In Oklahoma City, several restaurants have announced closures in solidarity, including restaurants owned by Good Egg Dining.

"Our industry, our restaurants, and our communities are built on the hard work, passion, and dedication of immigrants. They are the backbone of our kitchens, our service, and our culture. Today, we stand with them," reads a social media post shared by the group's restaurants.

Here's what to know about who is closed in OKC today:

What is 'A Day Without Immigrants'?

Meet Bianca Censori, Kanye West's partner who went almost fully nude at the 2025 Grammy Awards

February 03, 2025 0

 


  • Bianca Censori, Kanye West's partner, went almost fully nude while walking the 2025 Grammys red carpet.

  • Censori, 30, has been romantically linked to the controversial rapper, 47, since January 2023.

  • She is an architectural designer at Yeezy, per a LinkedIn profile matching her description.

Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, is no stranger to making headlines, but his partner Bianca Censori may have outshone him this time.

On Sunday, the rapper, 47, hit the 2025 Grammy Awards red carpet clad in a black shirt and pants, while Censori, 30, wore a black fur coat that she removed to reveal a virtually transparent mini dress underneath.

Censori has been spotted wearing sheer outfits in public multiple times before.

In March, she pulled up to a drive-thru with Ye in a super sheer black bodysuit. A month later, in April, she went to dinner with him in Los Angeles in a completely see-through tube dress and hot pink stockings. In December, she was also seen strolling around Art Basel Miami in a similarly racy nude bodysuit that left little to the imagination.

In January 2023, TMZ reported that the pair had symbolically wed without a marriage certificate in a private ceremony in Beverly Hills. Earlier in the month, they were spotted sharing a meal at the Waldorf Astoria, and Ye was wearing a new ring on his left-hand ring finger in photos taken by TMZ that day.

This came just two months after West finalized his divorce from Kim Kardashian.

Censori and Ye have yet to publicly confirm their marriage, but the rapper did refer to her as a "stepmom" to his children in a since-deleted birthday tribute post on Instagram in January 2024, per People.

Before news of their relationship broke, Censori hadn't been in the spotlight in the same way as Ye's more high-profile exes, like Kardashian and Julia Fox.

Here's everything you need to know about Censori and her connection to Ye.

Censori is an architectural designer at Yeezy

According to Censori's LinkedIn account, she began working as an architectural designer at Yeezy in November 2020 and has been working full-time at the company.

Before that, she worked as a student architect and design consultant at DP Toscano Architects, an architectural firm in Collingwood, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia.

Censori was also part of the architectural team involved in renovating Ye's Tadao Ando-designed beachfront property in Malibu, per The New Yorker. The rapper paid $57 million for the concrete home in 2011, gutted it, and sold it at a loss for $21 million in 2024.

She previously ran a jewelry brand called Nylons

Censori started Nylons, a jewelry company, just after she finished high school, she told i-D in 2016. "I started playing around with mesh, then putting crystals inside the meshing, just making really simple thin chokers," she said.
