GLAAD Media Awards Protest

We will present voices from the protest of the Gaza genocide last Saturday during the annual Media Awards ceremony of one of the largest, best-funded LGBTQ defense organizations, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation or GLAAD. GLAAD is a 40-year-old media watchdog against negative representations of queer and trans people. The 150-strong rally outside the New York City Hilton Hotel was sponsored by the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power or ACT UP, and Jewish Voice for Peace. It demanded the severing of GLAADs joint work with the Anti-Defamation League or ADL, which decided last fall to add ALL Palestine solidarity events to its tallies of anti-semitic incidents. The ADL also brings U.S. police to Israel to be trained in crowd control by high-level military personnel. Click here for comments of Emmaia Gelman on the ADL GLAAD: Drop The ADL.
