As season six of Top Chef marches onward, it's becoming rather obvious who the real contenders are for the top prize.

As we cross over into 2012, one of our biggest accomplishments in 2011 has been the various ways in which LGBTQ of African descent have employed different public venues to be heard. These following venues will be used as instruments of change in our future struggle.

In America, we crooned to the song that put Missy Higgins on the map in 2008 (the androgynous tune “Where I Stood” off her album "On a Clear Night"). The LGBT community took comfort in the haunting lovelorn lyrics written by the Australian-born singer/songwriter, but really had no idea who she was or where she came from…or where she was going.

Project Runway Season 10 has a host of colorful characters among the cast, few as interesting off screen as lesbian designer Alicia Hardesty. A Kentucky girl with fierce dreads who still loves fried green tomatoes and anything her mammaw cooks, Hardesty moved to Los Angeles with her girlfriend, actress Lauren King, in hopes of taking her own clothing line, the Kickstarter-funded Original Tomboy, to the next level.
