The 26th Annual GLAAD Media Awards are happening this Saturday May 9 in New York. The GLAAD Media Awards are filled with star-studded, headline-making, culture-changing moments, and we want you to see it all! Which is why on the night of the awards, we will be handing over our Instagram account to Danielle Moodie-Mills!
Danielle is an educator, advocate, and government affairs specialist. She is also the creator of the radio show Politini. Moodie-Mills was also named one of the top Forty-Under-40 national LGBT leaders by The Advocate magazine. Danielle and her wife Aisha, President and CEO of Victory fund, were the first lesbian couple to have their story and wedding photos featured on Essence.com. We are so excited to have Danielle take over this role for the Media Awards! Follow us at instagram.com/glaad to get an inside look at the red carpet and the show.
