About this Event
For ten years, members of the Black LGBTQ+ community have gathered in Los Angeles to recognize and honor their own, provide scholarships to LGBTQ+ youth and thank those called ally. This event, known as the Truth Awards, has become the seminal event for our community. Each year, over 600 attendees, from across the United States, journey to Los Angeles to be inspired, uplifted and reminded of our community’s impact on popular culture, politics and the arts. We believe this event increases our collective presence and our perception in society.
Through our partnership with Emmy Award-winning actress and star of ABC’s Abbott Elementary, Sheryl Lee Ralph and her DIVA Foundation, we have honored over 50 individuals including Raven-Symone´, Actress, Producer and Advocate; Colman Domingo, Emmy Award Winning Actor; TS Madison, Actress, Advocate, and Influencer; Marsha Warfield, Comedian, Actress; Derrick Rutledge, celebrity Makeup Artist; Anthony Hemingway, Emmy Award-winning Producer, Director, Writer; Rahsaan Patterson, Writer, Singer, Producer; Angelica Ross, Actress, Advocate, Businesswoman; Dr. Shaun Harper, Executive Director USC Race, and Equity Center; Ellene Miles, SVP Sony Pictures Entertainment; and Karamo Brown, Culture Expert, Talk Show Host; for their accomplishments and contributions to the LGBTQ+ community.
