June is Pride Month, and often those who honor it celebrate with festivals, parades and more. It’s seen as a visible way for the LGBTQ community and allies to celebrate who they are.

Guest host Mike Kallmeyer spoke with state Sen. Nickie Antonio, D-Lakewood, the first openly gay state representative in Ohio; Hamilton County Sheriff Charmaine McGuffey, the first openly gay sheriff in Hamilton County; and Key Beck, interim senior manager of clinical prevention programs at Equitas Health, to discuss what efforts are being done across Ohio on behalf of the LGBTQ+ community. While many feel like great strides have been made in LGBTQ+ rights, some still say there is a long way to go to truly reach equality.
