We are now hearing from Dave Chappelle after Netflix employees staged a walkout over his latest special. 

It all started because some at Netflix were upset about jokes made in Chappelle's comedy special about the trans community and how the company responded to it. 

A spokesperson for Chappelle says the comedian would be open to talking to people from Netflix if they contact him. 

The rep for Chappelle also reportedly said: "Dave stands by his art: No more jokes about transgenders until we can all laugh together."
