The Kennedy Center was made into a hub of Christian evangelical propaganda last week, demonstrating the extent to which the Trump administration is attempting to use the institution to proselytize its culturally conservative worldview to the public.

Last Wednesday, the center screened the documentary “The Revival Generation: Gen Z Turning to Jesus,” produced by the extremist-friendly Christian Broadcasting Network. (The documentary’s executive producer is the granddaughter of Pat Robertson, who founded CBN.) The film features right-wing Christian activists who advocate for a “national revival movement” at American colleges and universities, where right-wing culture warriors like activist Charlie Kirk have sought to expand their power and influence.

The Christian Broadcasting Network posted images on social media that show the worship session, featuring gospel artist Tasha Cobbs Leonard, that it hosted after the screening.

Gays drowning out Christian hate with 'Pink Pony Club' on kazoo is the best thing you’ll see today

Over Labor Day weekend, LGBTQ+ protestors and allies gathered to put on a delightfully absurd show of resistance during a far-right concert in Seattle’s Gas Works Park.

The event, Revive in 25, was a concert held by Christian activist group Let Us Worship, which is led by openly anti-LGBTQ+ leader Sean Feucht. In the past, Feucht has spewed hateful rhetoric, including likening Pride Month to a “demonic agenda,” and has said via social media that drag queens are “demonic, sick, twisted” and “perverting the minds of children.” He has also called for a “Christian uprising.” Feucht was formerly a worship leader at the controversial Bethel Church in Redding, California.

So it’s no surprise that approximately 200 pro-LGBTQ+ protestors crowded into Gas Works Park to offer some excellent counter-programming. Specifically, they rocked out to Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” on kazoo, drowning out the nearby evangelical concert.

If it sounds silly, that was by design. Speaking with KUOW, the Kazoo Karaoke organizer said the point was to bring “clown energy” to the protest. “The point of [Let Us Worship’s] event was to rage bait our community into eliciting a response,” Rae told the publication. So they began crafting a response that would “diffuse” that energy — and inspiration struck.
