Love that it’s still referred to as the Kennedy Center.

Every performer who performs while that vile graffiti is on the wall will suffer permanent professional harm and deserve every bit of it

Or? …hear me out… Performers could change their name to **Fuck Donald Trump**.

They should do their performances, but instead of music or dance, they should lecture the audience on the evils of fascism.

It’s not the most evil thing about them, but what really strikes me most is just what enormous pussies they are. They won, they have nearly all the power, they’re breaking laws all the time … and they still make the time to pull this shit and threaten to sue at the first sign of dissent, or to put up his Hall of Presidential Photos and Snide Captions … they don’t just do whatever they want, we’re all supposed to think it’s awesome, too. I’m a tenth that pathetic, psychologically, and it’s my biggest nightmare that people might ever learn that about me. They broadcast it without even trying, it’s just what they are at a fundamental level.

Good. The only other alternative is to perform and roast Trump in the process.

I keep going to their website watching all the names vanish from their calendar and it brings me a lot of joy.
No one who is perofrming there, needs to perform there. It is one venue and not even *that* popular of a venue. Just leave. No one who is actually an artist should be performing there.
The line is crystal clear, extremely thick, and also on fire. It is unmissable. Any artist still making the conscious choice to perform there, is *making a choice*.

I’m old enough to remember when the SC said a certain cake maker doesn’t have to do any “art” that is against their “beliefs”, like making a wedding cake for two dudes(?)
Jazz artists will never play for fascists.

Guess the threat of a lawsuit didn’t make the desired impact.
Sad.

Hmmm. A performing arts center that JFK and his wife worked to fund, built and named after him after his assassination, but yeah we’ll just put Trump’s name on it, I guess because he didn’t bulldoze it like the White House?

Any journalist that calls it the “Trump-Kennedy Center” until Congress formally names it that should be ostracized by their professional community

Apparently not everyone is as idiotic as Republicans and people don’t actually want their name anywhere close to the name of America’s most prolific traitor

Make no mistake, the ones pulling the strings WANT this to happen. They made it so they would come out on top no matter what. If performers kept showing up, they would take it as a sign that the artists have sided with them. If they continue to cancel and ticket sales keep going down, they’ll see this as a reason to tear down the memorial under the guise that it is no longer popular or financially sound. They win no matter what.

And CeCe Winans is getting roasted for complementing the KC Honors broadcast. Her sister performed but people are not buying that as an only reason for support.
