Netflix staff protest against ‘transphobic’ Dave Chappelle show – BBC News


About 100 people have protested outside Netflix’s headquarters over the airing of a comedy special by Dave Chappelle, which they say was transphobic.

Netflix staff and transgender activists staged the walkout outside the streaming giant’s Los Angeles offices.

Demonstrators called on Netflix to fund more trans and non-binary talent, and other measures to avoid "transphobia and hate speech".

Ahead of the rally, Netflix issued a statement in support of the activists.

A video was also released featuring several Netflix stars, including Queer Eye’s Jonathan Van Ness and The Good Place actress Jameela Jamil, thanking people for taking part in the demonstration.
