Shame on Chappelle (ft. Imara Jones)

It wouldn't be Cancel Me, Daddy if we didn't delve into Dave Chappelle's horrible, new Netflix special "The Closer." Katelyn and Oliver are joined by the one and only Imara Jones of TransLash Media who shares her sharp analysis and insightful perspective on the hateful special who's actually being silenced. The trio discuss how Netflix can't "carbon offset" bigotry, the ways this special puts Black trans women especially at risk, and the problem with hate being profitable. Cancel Me, Daddy was also recently nominated for an award through Discover Pods!

The pearl clutching about “cancel culture” and “censorship” has become louder and more absurd while also getting more and more play in the media. Journalists Katelyn Burns and Christine Grimaldi see this panic for what it is though: a grift. They take a closer look at these temper tantrums, dispelling myths, laughing at the most outrageous takes, and shedding light on which perspectives are actually being suppressed and left out of the conversation.
