This past Saturday, Dave Chappelle hosted SNL again but was met with some backlash.
Before he hosted, some celebrities and even staff came out and said they were going to boycott this weekend’s episodes.
Now that it has aired, SNL’ was slammed for Dave Chappelle Monologue: “Popularizing Antisemitism”
On Sunday, the Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt said “We shouldn’t expect @DaveChappelle to serve as society’s moral compass, but disturbing to see @nbcsnl not just normalize but popularize #antisemitism, Why are Jewish sensitivities denied or diminished at almost every turn? Why does our trauma trigger applause?”
Chappelle’s 15-minute monologue has racked up 3.2 million views in less than 24 hours on YouTube – more than any other SNL video since last May.
