Students from David Chappelle's high school alma mater, Duke Ellington School of the Arts are enraged that the school could be bought off by him, and have promised direct action should the school proceed as planned.
LGBTQI and allied students at the Duke Ellington School of the Arts have promised a walkout over a planned fundraiser and renaming of the school in light of Chappelle's last special 'the closer'.
They have ended, at least temporarily, the administration's plan to rename the school after Chappelle in exchange for his donations, which the school stated was in the millions of dollars.

According to The Washington Post the Duke Ellington School of the Arts, in Northwest D.C., will postpone renaming its theater after comedian Dave Chappelle, one of the school’s most famous graduates, amid concerns from students about his recent Netflix special, the school said in a statement Friday.
A dedication was originally planned for Nov. 23. But the school said in a statement that “moving forward with the event … without first addressing questions and concerns from members of the Ellington Community would be a missed opportunity for a teachable moment.”
While LGBTQ organizations, Netflix employees and some Duke Ellington students have criticized Chappelle’s latest special, “The Closer,” for his comments about transgender people and the LGBTQ community, the renaming of the theater will go forward on April 22, the school said..

National Black Justice Coalition Urge Netflix to Remove Dave Chappelle’s ‘The Closer’ Special
Chappell self-identified in the closer as a member of 'Team TERF' which is an acronym for Transgender Exclusionary Radical Feminist. The irony of this is TERFs hate the name or being pigeonholed into an agenda. And by doing so while beating down on transgender people Chappelle was attacking the very base of his audience.

Later Chappelle crowed about his sell-out crowd during his first appearance following 'the closer'.
However, he shouldn't get too used to that since TERFs comprise a tiny minority of feminists and white supremacists who applaud his bashing of LGBT people on line, won't be buying tickets for future performances for obvious reasons.
