special, but today the comic was booted out of one of Minneapolis’ most storied venues for his often wounding take on the Transgender community.
Mere hours before the Mark Twain Prize winner was set to step on to the stage at the Minnesota metropolis’ First Avenue, organizers pulled the plug on the sold out show. Citing a backlash against Chappelle’s perceived transphobic remarks, First Avenue management cancelled his protested performance at the venue and moved him to the nearby Varsity Theater.
Attention Dave Chappelle Fans! The show scheduled for tonight at First Ave has now been moved to Varsity Theater. Your tickets from First Ave will be honored. Doors open at 8PM and we highly recommend arriving early.
He was nominated for an Emmy for that dogshit special?
I think it’s disingenuous for First Ave to have booked him in the first place if this was going to be their stance. Like, they HAD to have known, right?
Dave Chappelle's number one target is white people. Grow up petty people.
How do you do comedy... if you can't make a joke about anyone. All groups have oddities about them. All groups. Lighten up. It isn't like he is in malice or don't have gay friends or respect all groups. The world needs of big laugh and the fearmongers only want fear.
Chapelle is hack now. Sorry.
'Chappelle showed little understanding of the pain he may have caused' Was this a news story or an opinion piece?
Wow... So woke
Has he tried making better jokes?
