He said the documentary will be available to view at screenings in 10 cities next month, including New York, Atlanta, San Francisco, Minneapolis and Cleveland.
Love Dave!
Dave could learn from Tim Hardaway. In 2007 TH made horrendous comments about the LGBTQ cmty. When he saw the backlash and pain he caused, he took it to heart, then went all in on meeting, listening, and learning. He's now a welcomed ally who truly regrets his behavior.
Hilarious!
Dave you did nothing wrong. It’s called comedy.
He was awesome Sunday night
😂
Team TERF!
🐐🐐🐐
Haven’t heard a word he said but he has the right to say it.
Who gives so much importance to his being anyhow...
Fake news!
Chappelle rules…
He is not transphobic, My God, watch his special.
Who cares. The supreme court made qualified immunity for police a permanent thing. Black America should care more about that.
nothin wrong with Chappelle stance shh not everyone likes whatever its so exhausting
The only person with balls as a comedian.
horrible
Can we stop covering a multimillionaire making stupid comments to feed his oversized ego?

It sounds like Chappelle is open to continuing the dialog his special started. Hopefully his critics will engage rather than continue attempting to silence him. In defense of Dave Chappelle
Bunch of babies, it's comedy. Grow up ⬆️
Freedom of speech, let him be.
And the moral of this story is?....
Not actually a controversy, just goyim yelling their lines.

Dave Chappelle says he'll meet with transgender critics, but he's 'not bending to anybody's demands'Weeks after his special 'The Closer' was criticized for its jokes aimed at transgender people, Dave Chappelle has addressed the controversy. Do they have a global leader? Seeing as you patronise them.. watch the special! CNN or have a mainly peaceful riot/tantrum! Don't forget 'cancel culture' is just modern twitter speak for 'people don't like you anymore'. There is no real cancel police coming for you, Dave. Everyone relax and go back to ignoring whatever hot-headed internet kids are venting about online. 💜 If people took issue with him they didn’t watch the special. They are only reading what’s on social media.
