[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many artists and patrons, myself included, will be boycotting the KC until Trump is gone[/quote]

That is just silly.[/quote]

It is not. Anyone who still supports the KC during this period hates America and the arts. [/quote]

NP.  I have friends who are musicians at the Kennedy Center.  Honestly, I think you are being short sighted.  And wrong.[/quote]

I hear what you are saying but we have to start boycotting and resisting somewhere. Some many of us wonder how things got so bad right in front of peoples eyes in 1930s Germany. Yes, that's a slight projection but sitting back now because a few may lose jobs vs allowing hatred and censorship of our arts as the direction of a President seems like you're allowing things to happen right in front of your eyes.

Is boycotting the National Symphony Orchestra really the thing that’s going to make a difference, though? If the Kennedy Center goes down, Trump wins. If the Kennedy Center succeeds, Trump wins. This is a no win scenario where the KC employees are in the crossfire. [/quote]

It's not.  It's performative to boycott the KC and I think people are also worried about being judged by their We Believe lawn sign neighbors.[/quote]

I have LGBTQ family members so I’m walking the talk not being performative. I’m not supporting anything that is openly discriminating against people I love. [/quote]

You're making zero difference other than causing people in the arts to lose their jobs.  KC isn't going anywhere.  It might go dormant for a while and shed employees because people don't go.  But it will still be there.[/quote]

The musicians and artists can find other venues. I'll continue to support them, but not at TKC probably ever again.[/quote]

Yes, I think they really feel your support.  It's coming through.[/quote]
