Trans employees and allies at Netflix are planning a walkout on Oct. 20 in protest of co-CEO Ted Sarandos' comments regarding Dave Chappelle's new special.
LOS ANGELES - Trans employees and allies at Netflix are planning a walkout on Wednesday, Oct. 20, in protest of co-CEO Ted Sarandos' comments regarding Dave Chappelle's new special,"The Closer," Variety has confirmed.
Netflix's Most Twitter account dedicated to LGBTQ content posted Wednesday,"We can't always control what goes on screen. What we can control is what we create here, and the POV we bring to internal conversations." "Chappelle is one of the most popular stand-up comedians today, and we have a long standing deal with him. His last special 'Sticks & Stones,' also controversial, is our most watched, stickiest and most award winning stand-up special to date," Sarandos wrote.""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.
