Issa Rae cancels sold-out event at Kennedy Center following Trump takeover

Actress Issa Rae has canceled a sold-out show at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, citing "an infringement of values" at the venue after President Trump fired board members and installed himself as chairman this week.

Rae, the creator and star of HBO's "Insecure," announced on Instagram that she would no longer host her "An Evening with Issa Rae" event that was scheduled at the Washington, D.C., venue for March 16. 

"Unfortunately, due to what I believe to be an infringement on the values of an institution that has faithfully celebrated artists of all backgrounds through all mediums, I've decided to cancel my appearance at this venue," the actress said in the post.
