The end of an era. 🥹💙 Serving as Creative Director at @glaad for nearly 7 years has been my greatest honor. Proud can’t begin to describe how I feel about all I was able to accomplish. Thank you for giving me the space to fight for our community.

We’ve had enough. We’ve joined over 100 organizations and leaders to demand that @nytimes stop printing inaccurate and harmful misinformation about transgender people and issues. Today we are outside of the Times building to send a clear message. https://t.co/IkQocpsG5q

Saying “this doesn’t happen to people like me very often” when a Black woman hasn't won that award since 1999 is crazy lol

Today is my 32nd birthday.

Over the last month, I asked several 90-year-olds what advice they would give to their 32-year-old selves.

Here's the life advice everyone needs to hear:

[The Webby Awards @TheWebbyAwards]

In the first episode of Changemakers, a People's Voice-winning series from @glaad, Kingsley Gbadegesin shares his story of founding "a Black-owned brand aiming to reclaim and redefine the Black, Queer, Femme body and to create the tangible, direct support communities need today."

[Keith Nelson Jr @JusAire]

I clicked the link to the leak and the first song on the Beyonce album is just her saying "So, you just couldn't wait, could you?" And then she read my address back to me before the song started.

I'll see y'all in prison

@sza getting the whole restaurant together.

🌈🤍 THANK YOU x A TRILLION, @glaad

[Abdool Corlette @akcorlette]

so honored to be a guest editor at @adage this week!

[GLAAD @glaad]

"One thing I learned very early on about myself is that it is very hard for me to separate who I am from what I do. My work is personal. It is an extension of how I see the world, how I experience it, but most importantly, who I am." @akcorlette

[Abdool Corlette @akcorlette]

Thank you @adage for spotlighting this incredible project and all of the work the teams at @glaad and @ally put into it!

“One of the main things we were seeing across the country was how COVID was disproportionately impacting women and minority-owned businesses, LGBTQ-owned businesses, Black-owned businesses" @akcorlette on the creation of "Changemakers." @annzo

Wasn’t ready for this today—today we lost a titan, an icon. She was a writer who made us feel seen all the way down to our bones. When I say rest in power, it’s with the knowledge of all the power she’s given to the rest of us. Keep empowering, empress. 💔🙏🏿

[Abdool Corlette @akcorlette]

So disappointing.

[ACLU @ACLU]

During his campaign, President Biden promised voters broad student loan forgiveness. As president, he hasn't delivered.

Student debt cancellation would help close the racial wealth gap, while addressing the student debt crisis for millions.

Biden must cancel student debt NOW.
