Nine intersectional LGBT artists were honored Monday at the White House as "Champions of Change," reported the Washington Blade. The event is billed on the administration's website as "One Voice Can Change the World."

"Champions of Change is really my favorite event that we have here because it makes me hopeful," said Valerie Jarrett, senior adviser to President Obama. "Sometimes in Washington, you can lose that hopefulness and what it is all about, honoring ordinary people who've done just extraordinary things."
