Netflix’s transgender employees and allies gathered outside the company’s L.A. headquarters while employees working from their homes united in a “virtual walkout” to protest Dave Chappelle's latest stand-up special.
"This isn’t just about Netflix," Preston told the crowd. “It’s about a corporate culture that manipulates the algorithmic sciences to distort the way that we perceive ourselves."
David Huggard Jr., who appeared on “RuPaul’s Drag Race” as Eureka O'Hara, called on Chappelle to show more empathy. The protesters toted signs bearing pro-LGBTQ slogans — such as"Team Trans,""Invest in Trans Creators" and"Spread Love Not Hate" — and chanted"Trans lives matter."“I’m here because I’m pissed. I’m devastated. I’m angry,” Keodara, who identifies as gay, told NBC News. “I believe Ted Sarandos should be fired or resign. Our lives are worth more than money.”
