Adweek Pride Stars on the Changing Face of LGBTQ Inclusion

They joined Adweek and GLAAD to discuss intersectionality and workplace advocacy

This week, Adweek introduced its first-ever award honoring LGBTQ leaders in marketing, brands, media and culture: Adweek Pride Stars.

The 15 people chosen for the inaugural Pride Stars honors have different roles in the industry, but each has worked to push forward LGBTQ inclusion, visibility and equality both by being out in the workplace and by consistently making progress in how LGBTQ people are represented in advertising.

On the Friday just before Pride weekend, several of the Pride Stars honorees joined special guests to discuss the changing nature of corporate America, and how the combination of the Covid-19 pandemic and the resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement have radically changed this year’s experience of Pride.
