Comedian Dave Chappelle found himself back in his hometown of Washington, DC where he got a cold welcome from some of the students at his old high school.

Chappelle who lives in Yellow Springs, Ohio and frequents Dayton during his down time has come under fire for his Netflix comedy show The Closer. In the clips, the comedian/activist made comments addressing the trans community. Even though he was telling jokes, the act didn't impress many in the LGBTQ+ community and they demanded that the show be pulled. 

Netflix stood by it decision to have it air and it led to a massive protest against Chappelle and the streaming company for allowing it to air.

So while back in Washington, DC, Chappelle went to his old high school Duke Ellington School for the Arts to take part in a Q&A session with staffers and students. He handed out Thanksgiving meals and tickets to his upcoming film, Untitled.

The comedian with cameramen in tow was greeted with cheers and boos. Not often Chappelle gets booed for being on stage. Chappelle, a mildly shy person doesn't do pictures or filming his show without permission. He often will take pictures if you're not trying to sell them for profit. 

As with many of his shows, he requires you to not have cell phones or cameras in the facility.

So there were allegations based of witness accounts of the show.

Eight students have directly went to Chappelle and told him he's a bigot and his attitude towards the trans community was childish and beneath him.

"I'm 16 and I think you're childish, you handled [the controversy] like a child."

"My friend, with all due respect, I don't believe you could make one of the decision I have to make on a given day," said Chappelle.

Some students call for Chappelle to be removed from the donor's list at Duke Ellington. They also believe that hosting him was a big mistake. The school values include diversity, enlightenment and success.

The Duke Ellington School for the Arts is part of the Washington DC Public Schools.

Many also want Chappelle not to be named on their theater due to his controversial remarks.

So far, Chappelle remains unfazed by the attention. Although, he has seen a drop in popularity, the comedian continues to push forward. 

Also in regards to his remarks about the act, one student said "Your comedy kills."

He responded back saying that "Niggas are killed every day."
