Dave Chappelle Among Headliners For The Event

Controversial comedian Dave Chappelle is a headliner for Netflix Is A Joke: The Festival. Last year, some LGBTQ+ organizations criticized Chappelle’s Netflix special titled The Closer for highlighting the anti-trans movement known as TERF (Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist). 

Amy Schumer, Chris Rock, Damon Wayans, and David Letterman will also be at the Netflix Is A Joke Festival. Plus, Jerry Seinfeld, Kevin Hart, Larry David, Marlon Wayans, Pete Davidson, Seth Rogan, and Wanda Sykes are on the lineup.
