Misogyny and harassment is an even more massive problem in stand-up! I hear more terrible statements about women in 10 minutes of an open mic than I may hear the entire rest of the week otherwise.

The proposed blackout day is also the night of a show headlined by all-black group 3Peat and featuring the monthly all-inclusive DiOversity Jam. It would be a shame to shun the only show at a major theater headlined by people of color because of an ill-timed boycott.
