From Milestones to the New Normal

As more LGBTQ characters appear on screen, is it time to move away from celebrating their uniqueness and instead recognize their normality? While increasing representation continues to be a priority, moving beyond tokenism means not every LGBTQ interaction in a show needs to be called out as a milestone. Instead, this panel will discuss the value of inclusion in the everyday.
