Several people walked out of Dave Chappelle’s comedy show in Boston after he began discussing the war in Israel and Gaza, according to a report. Chappelle, 50, was near the end of his set on Thursday at the TD Garden when he said college students shouldn’t lose job offers for supporting Palestinians, the Wall Street Journal reported. When someone in the audience reportedly shouted “Shut up!” in response, Chappelle dove further into the conflict, according to the Journal.
At that point, cheers, boos and cries of “Free Palestine!” erupted from the crowd, the Journal reported. The commotion, combined with Chappelle’s criticism of the Israeli government, inspired many people to leave. “We walked out and met up with many other Jews leaving the show. Never in my life have I felt so unsafe and so fearful of what I was witnessing,” one person posted on social media.
