Tara Hoot Defends the Arts
J
17:28Jeb BakkeCORRESPONDENT
What have you seen already sizably shift in your action here so far? I think that what I would love is to bring
T
17:34Tara HootGUEST
back professionals who know about the arts to be at the Kennedy Center, right? To the people that were running it and doing amazing things.
T
17:41Tara HootGUEST
The Reach was really meant to have smaller performances, to do outreach, to reach out to the community.
T
17:48Tara HootGUEST
And there was a social impact team that reached out to me, and they were amazing.
T
17:54Tara HootGUEST
they were doing the hard work of bringing different communities together, bringing the arts from the Kennedy Center to the different communities in Washington, D.C., and the educational part of the Kennedy Center.

T
71:37Tara HootGUEST
Uh, 2011, 2012, I spent, uh, two summers undercover working in, uh, some of your fine gay clubs right here in Washington, DC.
S

Not for me.
T
72:39Tara HootGUEST
So, it was me and, uh, and one of my buddies who was assigned to the Sixth District, which is east of the Anacostia River.
T
72:46Tara HootGUEST
And, uh, the two of us got temporarily detailed to 2D, and we were part of this investigation, and we were going into a bunch of different gay clubs.
