“A New Year’s Eve incident involving aggressive policing prompted comedian Dave Chappelle to speak out at a village council meeting Monday in Yellow Springs, the small Ohio town where he spent part of his childhood and now lives.
“Huge gaffe New Year’s Eve,” Chappelle said, after voicing his appreciation of the town’s police force, saying that on two occasions Yellow Springs officers had protected him.
Yellow Springs, a majority white town with a population of roughly 3,500, is the sort of place “where hippies slipped me bags of Girl Scout cookies” and “Tibetan jewelry stores and fair-trade coffee shops dotted the main street,” as Rachel Kaadzi Ghansah wrote at Believer magazine in 2013. At the end of each year, Yellow Springs locals gather downtown to lower a disco ball to the ground.
The holiday tradition normally passes without incident. But something seemed different in the dwindling moments of 2016.”
