“None of us are free until we are all free.”

In honor of Pride Month, Logo will spotlight diverse entertainers, activists, creatives, and changemakers in the LGBTQ+ community, throughout the month of June, with its third installment of Logo30. The powerful series profiles everyday heroes and extraordinary people who show pride in unique and provocative ways. Beginning June 15, change-makers will come together to share what Pride means to them in addition to highlighting their work with an individual editorial on NewNowNext.com.

“This year’s honorees add to the vivid spectrum of that long-standing march, from the entertainers and artists pushing our dynamic stories forward, to the activists and policymakers working to advance our human rights, to the rule-breakers creating new spaces, both digital and IRL, for us to truly thrive. Whether isolated or together, whether we fill the streets with joy or with anger, our very existence is worth celebrating, and our very existence is protest. And the entire Logo team is honored to highlight this small fraction of voices leading the way,” said Terron Moore, Editorial Director of Logo, NewNowNext, and MTV News.

The lineup of some of today’s most influential LGBTQ+ personalities involved with Logo30 includes: 

  • Bob The Drag Queen

Erik Anderson is the founder/owner and Editor-in-Chief of AwardsWatch and has always loved all things Oscar, having watched the Academy Awards since he was in single digits; making lists, rankings and predictions throughout the show. This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013. He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Critics Choice Association (CCA), San Francisco Bay Area Film Critics Circle (SFBAFCC) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
