Content: Over the past several years, Ellen has continued her advocacy efforts, including working on projects that center on LGBTQ+ characters. She has also acted as the host of Gaycation , a series that challenges views on LGBTQ+ communities throughout the world. Page is an important, visible LGBTQ+ celebrity, and her advocacy efforts have continued to make an impact over the last few years. 4. Laverne Cox
Laverne Cox got her claim to fame for her role as Sophia Burset on Netflix's hit series, Orange is the New Black. Since then, Laverne, who is considered the first transgender woman of color to have such an impactful role on mainstream television, has been a committed advocate for LGBTQ+ rights. She produced a documentary called Free CeCe, telling the story of a transwoman sentenced to almost three and a half years in jail for defending herself against an attack. Laverne also advocated for better data collection of LBGTQ+ individuals with Congress. Better data collection, according to Laverne, means a lower chance of discriminatory bills like the anti-transgender bathroom laws passing. According to the actress, with more actual data about trans people, there will be less misinformation and hopefully, less hate.
