GLAAD Media Awards 2020: Complete list of nominees from 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' to 'Dear White People'
The GLAAD Media Awards is a ceremony to recognize the excellence of media in many forms. From film and series to music and blogs, it honors "fair, accurate, and inclusive representations of LGBTQ people and issues." The ceremony made its debut in 1990 and has gained rightful popularity since due to its messages for global acceptance and peace. This year would be the 31st Annual GLAAD Media Awards presented by Delta Air Lines, Gilead, P&G and Wells Fargo.
"As this year's Media Awards go virtual, we hope to send a powerful message to LGBTQ people that in the midst of this culturally and politically divisive time, our visibility and voices have never been more important," said GLAAD President & CEO Sarah Kate Ellis.
