Netflix employees staged a walkout on Wednesday after Dave Chappelle made “transphobic comments” in his special “The Closer”. In his last special for Netflix, Dave Chappelle declared himself to be Team TERF’ while defending Harry Potter author Rowling. Chappelle, asserting that Gender is a fact, said, “Every human being in this room, every human being on earth, had to pass through the legs of a woman to be on earth. That is a fact.” The special was littered with other jokes around similar issues as well. The special has incensed the Woke’ camp and Woke’ employees at Netflix staged a walkout in protest. They are demanding that the streaming platform hire “transgender/nonbinary” people to executive roles and create a fun to support talents from these groups. Source Instagram The walkout has received a great deal of support from people in the entertainment industry. Elliot Page, an actor who was known as Ellen Page before coming out as transgender, came out in support of the Netflix employees. She said, “I stand with the trans, nonbinary, and BIPOC employees at Netflix fighting for more and better trans stories and a more inclusive workplace.” Lilly Wachowski of The Matrix fame, a transgender herself, said, “If you’re not standing up for trans lives, you need to take a good look at who you ARE standing with.” Comic Wanda Sykes stated, “Standing in solidarity with the Netflix employees speaking truth to power today and sending my full love and support.” The protesters and their supporters are accusing Dave Chappelle of contributing to “real life hate” towards transgenders and people from the LGBT community. Transparent Creator Joey Soloway said, “This is gender violence. Sharing his outrage as comedic humiliation in front of thousands of people, and then broadcasting it to hundreds of millions of people, is infinitely amplified gender violence… I want trans representation on the Netflix board. A trans person on the f-ing Netflix board this fucking week.” Actor Dan Levy said on the matter, “I stand with every employee at Netflix using their voice to ensure a safe and supportive work environment. I’ve seen firsthand how vital television can be when it comes to influencing the cultural conversation. That impact is real and works both ways positively AND negatively. Transphobia is unacceptable and harmful. That isn’t a debate.” Source Twitter LGBT rights group GLAAD also came out in support of the Netflix walkout. Source Twitter Netizens slam the Netflix Walkout Not everyone had good things to say about the Netflix walkout. Some said that it was an attempt by a “sensitive group” to cancel’ a successful Black man. Others said that Netflix employees had not bothered to stage a walkout when the streaming platform screened Cuties, a movie with overt pedophile inclinations, but were staging a walkout over a comedy special. Counter-protesters at the site responded to “Trans Lives Matter” chants with “We like jokes” slogans. The Dave Chappelle Comedy Special controversy What CEO Ted Sarandos said Earlier, the streaming platform had fired an employee for leaking confidential information regarding the Dave Chappelle special. It said in a statement, “We have let go of an employee for sharing confidential, commercially sensitive information outside the company. We understand this employee may have been motivated by disappointment and hurt with Netflix, but maintaining a culture of trust and transparency is core to our company.” CEO Ted Sarandos, in a letter to a select bunch of employees, defended the special. He said, “Chappelle is one of the most popular stand-up comedians today, and we have a long standing deal with him. … As with our other talent, we work hard to support their creative freedom — even though this means there will always be content on Netflix some people believe is harmful, like Cuties, 365 Days, 13 Reasons Why or My Unorthodox Life.” ““I recognize, however, that distinguishing between commentary and harm is hard, especially with stand-up comedy which exists to push boundaries. Some people find the art of stand-up to be mean-spirited but our members enjoy it, and it’s an important part of our content offering,” he added. In a letter a few days later, Ted Sarandos said that “content on screen doesn’t directly translate to real-world harm.” “The strongest evidence to support this is that violence on screens has grown hugely over the last thirty years, especially with first party shooter games, and yet violent crime has fallen significantly in many countries,” he said in that particular letter before adding, “Adults can watch violence, assault and abuse — or enjoy shocking stand-up comedy — without it causing them to harm others.” Later, however, Sarandos claimed that he had “screwed up” but reaffirmed his belief that the comedy special was consistent with the content Netflix has to offer. “When we think about this challenge we have to entertain the world, part of that challenge means that you’ve got audiences with various taste, various sensibilities, various beliefs. You really can’t please everybody or the content would be pretty dull,” he stated. Ted Sarandos added, “I do think that the inclusion of the special on Netflix is consistent with our comedy offering, it’s consistent with Dave Chappelle’s comedy brand, and this is … one of those times when there’s something on Netflix that you’re not going to like.”

Photo by Eamonn M. McCormack/Getty Images Editor’s note The following article is an op-ed, and the views expressed are the author’s own. Read more opinions on theGrio. It’s as hard to capture the genius of Dave Chappelle in a short essay as it is to explain the genius of Prince or Miles Davis. These are book-length challenges. But let’s try. Where most comics deal in short bursts of sentences. Chappelle tells long, winding stories that draw you in and keep you on the edge of your seat. He mixes social commentary into his comedy, giving intellectual observations about the world while keeping you laughing. He makes you feel smart for getting his comedy. And he talks a lot about himself in a way that creates a world—you know who the person speaking to you is. I can always go to a comedy show and walk away with a few funny jokes I can tell except if I go see Dave. You can’t repeat his long stories and remember all the callbacks and references. And because so much of his comedy is about himself, how could you tell the joke yourself? I love it when Chappelle, befitting someone in the hip-hop generation, talks about “Chappelle,” a version of himself who is brilliant, rich and such an amazing comedian that he can make a punchline out of anything, but also someone who’s lazy and liable to quit doing something, anything, at a moment’s notice. Chappelle is unapologetically Black—his comedy is Blackcentric and takes full advantage of the ability to make fun of white people and to call out their mistakes. In the way he talks and how he lives his life, Chappelle seems to be free. Years ago, I saw Chappelle perform in Connecticut, days after a show in Detroit had gone badly, and he came out and recounted the story of the bad show and said that he might leave us, too. Like, hey, you never know. It felt like he was someone who was so liberated that he was comfortable walking away from anything if he was uncomfortable. I know Chappelle will walk away from anything because he once walked away from me. In 2005, after Dave Chappelle’s Block Party came out, I flew to Ohio to interview Chappelle for BET. This was after he’d famously quit the legendary Chappelle’s Show. I was asked not to ask about Chappelle’s Show. Of course, I was there to do just that. After 10 minutes of talking about the Block Party, I segued into the brilliance of Chappelle’s Show and how great it was. He seemed uncomfortable at the shift, but I was focused on the show’s greatness, so he let me go there. Then, after 10 minutes of talking about the genius of his show, I asked him about leaving. He shifted uncomfortably in his chair. He lowered his gaze to the floor. He started talking about how we had seen this sort of thing before—he said after Mariah Carey and Martin Lawrence had gotten gigantic deals, they, too, had lost their minds and had public meltdowns. I felt like a therapist on the verge of a breakthrough. I had to ask just a few more questions about him leaving—one of the central cultural events of my generation—but one of my two cameramen announced that we had to stop for a moment because he had to change his battery. Are you kidding? He should have recognized that we were in a delicate moment and done this silently, but no, in an act of total tone-deafness, he announced that we had to stop. As soon as he said it, Chappelle said he needed a cigarette and leaped up from his chair. He walked outside and never came back. As painful as that was personally, I respect Chappelle immensely for being the sort of person who will walk out. In his post-Chappelle’s Show comedy, he talks a lot about refusing to be controlled by capitalism and the institutions that dominate it. He has likened Hollywood to a pimp, making himself a potential prostitute, as a way of explaining why he’s refused to play its game. He publicly called out Netflix, who has paid him about a zillion dollars over the past decade, for streaming Chappelle’s Show when he thought the deal was unfair. Chappelle is fearless onstage and off, willing to sacrifice a lot of money for his freedom and his mental health. I respect the hell out of that. I’m not saying I would’ve done it, but I understand. I think Chappelle’s best standup hour is still “The Age of Spin” because its structure is so brilliant. It’s like there are two countermelodies or counter-rhythms playing off each other as he goes in and out of stories about Simpson, commentary on Bill Cosby and notes on himself. But all of Dave’s specials have been great. He’s got a long, incredible resume of taking comedy into new realms and to me, the comedy GOAT battle is between Chappelle and Richard Pryor. No one else is close to them. There are a lot of similarities between them—Pryor, too, loved great stories. He often added bits of social commentary and talked a lot about himself. Both guys are unapologetically Black and champions for Black people. I have listened to a ton of Pryor’s stand-up work, and I revere him immensely. I love Pryor but I think Chappelle is funnier. I think he’s the greatest of all time. Touré is a host and Creative Director at theGrio.
