Kennedy Center row: Name change to Trump prompts concert cancellations; artists pull out

Renaming the Kennedy Center to include Donald Trump's name has sparked artist cancellations, including the jazz ensemble The Cookers. Critics deem the move illegal and damaging to JFK's legacy. Trump allies, now controlling the board, dismiss the boycotts as politically driven, while some artists cite racism and cultural destruction as reasons for their withdrawal.
