Kevin Hart has spent years playing the clown for white audiences, trading dignity for dollars in a performance of buffoonery that the Black community is sick of watching.

His latest betrayal, allowing a white supremacist to mock George Floyd’s murder at his production company’s comedy roast, was the final straw.

Hart’s silence in that moment wasn’t just cowardice; it was him punkin’ out. He stood by as Floyd’s memory was disrespected, proving he’d rather cozy up to racist humor than protect his own people.

Enough. Black audiences are done funding his self-hating hustle, and it’s time to hit him where it hurts: his wallet.

Boycott Hart’s production company, HartBeat Productions, and refuse to stream his movies on Netflix, HBO Max, or any platform that profits from his content. Skip collaborations with his equally problematic peers, no Dwayne Johnson joint projects, no support for comedians like Tiffany Haddish or Chris Rock who’ve enabled his antics.

Cancel subscriptions to Laugh Out Loud, his “comedy” network that peddles respectability politics as entertainment. Demand venues drop his tours, flood his sponsors (like Nike and AT&T) with calls to cut ties, and let Hollywood know: we won’t tolerate Black stars who prioritize palatability over pride.

Kevin Hart made his choice, now let him enjoy the consequences alone.
