Kennedy Center worker strips naked as he blasts Donald Trump for taking over the Center

A contract worker at the Kennedy Center was fired after he stripped naked to protest Donald Trump’s takeover of the Center.

Tavish Forsyth, who served as program director at the Kennedy Center’s Opera Institute, gave the world both an eyeful and an earful with a 35-minute video posted to his social media accounts on Wednesday, March 19.

“Trump has taken over the Kennedy Center and that’s a place where I work,” a clothed Forsyth said while sitting on a bed, footage posted to X and YouTube shows.

“He vowed to ban drag performers from [the Center’s] stages, and as the saying goes, ‘We’re all born naked, and the rest is drag.’”

Forsyth, 32, then snaps his fingers and the video transitions to him being naked, with his genitals exposed. He remained that way for the remainder of the video.

“F**k Donald Trump and the Kennedy Center,” Forsyth said in the video as he deliberated on staying or leaving his position at the Kennedy Center.

“But on the other hand, does staying, holding the line, and living to fight another day — do I take up space and defend the vision of this institution that is diverse and inclusive, unlike Trump’s vision for America?”

Forsyth lambasted the president’s plan to revamp and de-wokify the Kennedy Center, which was announced last month.

“In truth, our program is radically shaped by a DEI initiative. Our program is DEI — is diverse, equitable, and inclusive. And Vice President Trump [sic] has declared this to be illegal,” Forsyth claimed in the X-rated video.

Forsyth went on to refer to the Kennedy Center, which has a budget of $45 million, as a “glorified community center” that is experiencing a hostile takeover.

The federal employee expressed harshly critical views of the United States.

“Being pro-genocide is all America has ever done,” Forsyth stated at one point, adding shortly thereafter, “The revolution is now.”

“Death awaits us all, and America is no exception,” Forsyth said at one point.

He also took aim at Elon Musk, referring to the DOGE chief as an “authoritarian” and a “Nazi.”

Trump recently appointed himself as chair of the Kennedy Center and vowed to establish a “Golden Age in Arts and Culture.”

Meanwhile, Forsyth was fired from his contract position at the cultural institution soon after he posted the full frontal video, a spokesperson told The Post Thursday, March 20.
