Amber Ruffin hosted this year's concert, which highlighted the theme "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Fabulous." The event honored NYCLU’s work to protect all New Yorkers from discrimination, namely their work with New Yorkers for Equal Rights to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment and work with the ACLU Drag Defense Fund to defend LGBTQ+ Rights.
