Kennedy Center Jazz Concert Canceled After Trump's Name Added to Building

• A long-standing Christmas Eve jazz concert at the Kennedy Center was canceled by host Chuck Redd.
• Redd canceled the show after Donald Trump's name was added to the building's facade, a move he saw on the website and then the building itself.
• The facade now reads "The Donald J. Trump and The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts."
• Scholars state the name change, approved by Trump's handpicked board, violates the 1964 law establishing the center as a memorial to JFK.
• This incident follows Trump's increased involvement with the center, including leadership changes and other artists canceling performances.
