Dave Chappelle willing to meet with trans community amid Netflix scandal, won't bend 'to anybody’s demands'
Fox News
Dave Chappelle remained unapologetic about his special 'The Closer' — which was accused of containing transphobic and homophobic remarks and led to a walkout at Netflix.
"It’s been said in the press that I was invited to speak to the transgender employees of Netflix and I refused. That is not true — if they had invited me I would have accepted it, although I am confused about what we would be speaking about," Chappelle said in the video. "I said what I said, and boy, I heard what you said. My God, how could I not? You said you want a safe working environment at Netflix. It seems like I’m the only one that can’t go to the office anymore."
Chappelle claimed that the controversy was about "corporate interests" and that some members of the LGBTQ+ community have been supportive of him.
