  • Celebrities support #NetflixWalkout… Transgender employees and their allies staged a walk out at Netflix today in response to the company’s handling of the Dave Chappelle special. Talent including Billy Eichner, Lilly Wachowski, Elliot Page offered statements of support. Meanwhile, the protests seem to be working as Netflix boss Ted Sarandos admitted he “screwed up” with his initial statement and Netflix itself releasing a statement saying its “got much to learn.” Let’s hope all this leads to real change. 🏳️‍⚧️
