'I Love It': Dave Chappelle Not Worried About Getting Canceled Post-Netflix Controversy

Dave Chappelle is getting called out by several LGBTQ+ Groups after ridiculing trans people in his latest Netflix special.

"The Closer" premiered Tuesday and is the last of the three-part deal the comedian signed with the streaming platform.

During the special, Chappelle spoke about LGBTQ+-related topics, including the controversy surrounding the rapper, DaBaby, and Author, JK Rowlings.

Several LGBTQ+ groups are calling for Netflix to remove the special from its platform.

In a post to Twitter, an equal rights group, GLAAD, shared this statement.

"Dave Chappelle's brand has become synonymous with ridiculing trans people and other marginalized communities. Negative reviews and viewers loudly condemning his latest special is a message to the industry that audiences don't support platforming anti-LGBTQ diatribes. We agree."

On Friday, David Johns, Executive Director, National Black Justice Coalition spoke with Roland Martin about Chappelle's offensive comments.
