VIDEO: Harry Shum Jr. and Matthew Daddario accept GLAAD Media Award for ‘Shadowhunters’
Freeform’s Shadowhunters took home the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Drama Series at the 28th Annual GLAAD Media Awards at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on Saturday. Stars Harry Shum Jr. and Matthew Daddario accepted the award, which was presented by actor and previous Vanguard Award recipient Josh Hutcherson.
Tune in to Logo TV on Thursday, April 6 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT to watch the 28th Annual GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles!
“On the show, I play an openly proud bisexual warlock, who’s a person of color that’s in a relationship with a recently out gay shadowhunter,” said Shum, accepting the award. “I don’t think that combination has existed on television before […] I am proud to be a part of that progress.”
Shadowhunters, which features a relationship between gay shadowhunter Alec (Matthew Daddario) and bisexual warlock Magnus (Harry Shum Jr), stands out for its inclusion of a bisexual male in a central role when so few are seen on television. The drama, an adaptation of The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare, tells the story of a teenage girl thrown into a world of demons, magic, and magical creatures.
Additional awards will be presented at the GLAAD Media Awards in New York City at the New York Midtown on May 6. Tickets are available now at glaad.org/mediaawards.

Federal Appeals Court Issues Landmark Ruling: 1964 Civil Rights Act Protects LGBT Employees from Discrimination
The full 7th Circuit Court of Appeals handed down a landmark ruling on Tuesday that the 1964 Civil Rights Act protects LGBT employees from workplace discrimination.
Read the ruling HERE.
The decision by the full 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago comes just three weeks after a three-judge panel in Atlanta ruled the opposite, saying employers aren’t prohibited from discriminating against employees based on sexual orientation.
It also comes as President Donald Trump’s administration has begun setting its own policies on LGBT rights. Late in January, the White House declared Trump would enforce an Obama administration order barring companies that do federal work from workplace discrimination on the basis of sexual identity. But in February, it revoked guidance on transgender students’ use of public school bathrooms, deferring to states.
The case stems from a lawsuit by Indiana teacher Kimberly Hively alleging that the Ivy Tech Community College in South Bend didn’t hire her full time because she is a lesbian.
Hively said she agreed to bring the case because she felt she was being “bullied.”
The case is likely headed to the Supreme Court.
The case was appealed to the full 7th Circuit after they upheld a lower court ruling last August:
Hively spoke out last August after the ruling.
The AP notes that the 7th Circuit is considered a very conservative court, with 8 of the 11 judges appointed by Republican presidents.

Ruling Affirms Civil Rights Laws Protect Employees from Discrimination Based on Sexual Orientation
Today, HRC hailed a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit finding that Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act includes protections based on sexual orientation. This decision marks the first time a federal appellate court has ruled this way and reverses a previous decision made in July.
“This critically important Circuit Court decision has adopted a well-grounded legal analysis concluding that our nation’s civil rights laws include sexual orientation,” said HRC Legal Director Sarah Warbelow. “Today’s ruling is a monumental victory for fairness in the workplace, and for the dignity of lesbian, gay and bisexual Americans who may live in fear of losing their job based on whom they love. This court joins five others that have ruled these laws also prohibit discrimination on the basis of gender identity. We congratulate plaintiff Kimberly Hively, Lambda Legal and all the attorneys who helped achieve this victory.”
The Hively case stems from a lawsuit brought by Indiana teacher Kimberly Hively, who alleged that Ivy Tech Community College in South Bend did not offer her a full-time position because she is a lesbian. She was represented in the case by Gregory Nevins of Lambda Legal.
HRC holds the view that Title VII protects LGBTQ employees. Three successful legal efforts — all led by Lambda Legal — in federal courts in Seattle, Chicago, and Washington D.C., were cited by the EEOC in Baldwin v. Foxx in 2015. In that decision, the EEOC concluded that sexual orientation “inherently” involves sex-based considerations, and so sexual orientation discrimination claims are “necessarily” claims under Title VII.
Appeals Court Says Federal Law Bans Anti-LGB Discrimination
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act does cover sexual orientation discrimination, the Seventh Circuit rules, making it the highest court to arrive at this determination.
