Stop the Political Takeover of the Kennedy Center - Protect Free Expression

The Kennedy Center belongs to all Americans. President Trump's unprecedented decision to fire board members over drag performances threatens not just drag art, but the fundamental promise that our national cultural institutions reflect the full diversity and creativity of our nation.
We demand:
- Protection of artistic independence at the Kennedy Center
- Public commitment to programming that reflects America's full diversity
- Clear policy preventing political interference in artistic decisions
Why is this important?
This is censorship, plain and simple. Our national cultural institutions should be free from political interference that targets specific art forms or communities. When the government starts banning certain types of performances from our stages, it sets a dangerous precedent for all artistic expression.
The Kennedy Center has long celebrated America's diverse cultural heritage. Targeting board members over drag performances sends a chilling message about who gets to create art and whose stories deserve to be told.
Americans don't have to agree on everything, but we should be able to speak our minds and perform our art without bans, retaliation, or intimidation. That's what makes America America.
