“The recent demonization of drag culture has been greatly upsetting and completely shocking to me. I have had the pleasure of getting to know many drag performers, including one of my idols, the incomparable Trixie Mattel, over the past several years,” Jesse Eisenberg said.

“We are sick of it. These bans are not just about trans people or drag performers. It is a systematic subjugation of LGBTQ people. Through the Drag Isn’t Dangerous campaign, we want to show that drag performers are not dangerous groomers, sexual deviants, criminals or whatever is the latest evangelical slur du jour,” added Producer Entertainment Group co-founder Jacob Slane.

“We want to raise awareness and funds to make a difference in the lives of LGBTQ people who are under attack.”

Peppermint and comedian Justin Martindale will co-host the telethon.
