In today’s landscape, efforts to build bridges to accept and support the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer community are growing. The LGBTQ Trailblazers of Color Gala was created to identify, honor, and document the endless contributions of outstanding individuals of color who are advocates in the fight against HIV/AIDS, have pushed the advancement of LGBTQ rights, and have been an influence in our community.
