đ Clad in full drag and with Pride flags in tow, a âhands off our dragâ march across downtown Washington, D.C., culminated at the iconic Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, where protesters sent a clear message to its now chairman and U.S. President Donald Trump: âYou canât erase drag â weâll come right back.â Â Â
Â
Protesters, some of whom have performed at the Kennedy Center in the past, asserted that drag is a form of art, and that supporters of drag are supporters of the arts.
Â
The protest, co-organized by several D.C. local collectives, came just after Trump took over the Center, with his board appointees naming him chair and then firing its president, Deborah Rutter. đ Tap the link to find out which former U.S. ambassador now serves as the Centerâs interim president.
