GLAAD is thrilled to continue to see great participation that has been surrounding the #GotYourBack campaign. We're seeing more and more people every day pledging their support for the LGBT community. When LGBT people and allies speak out, hearts and minds open. Your voice is critical to increasing the acceptance of LGBT people.
In March, at the GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles,plenty of celebrities pledged their support for LGBT people and let them know they've #GotYourBack. The GLAAD Media Awards in New York are this weekend, where celebrities such as Ross Matthews, Kelly Ripa, Thomas Roberts, Anderson Cooper, and so many more are joining us in celebrating of the LGBT community. The GLAAD Media Awards recognize and honor media for their fair, accurate and inclusive representations of the LGBT community and the issues that affect their lives. The GLAAD Media Awards also fund GLAAD's work to amplify stories from the LGBT community and issues that build support for equality.
Speak out now and show the world the importance of LGBT acceptance. Take a look at the posts below, post your own photo with the hashtag #GotYourBack, and learn more about the campaign at glaad.org/gotyourback.
