Happy Pride! The city is currently in the midst of Cincinnati Pride Week, and we're celebrating with an issue dedicated to our local LGBTQ+ community and allies. Within its pages, you'll meet local drag queens at the forefront of activism and LGBTQ+ expression, learn about Nancy Yerian's Vibrant Kin project sponsored by People's Liberty and get to know ISQCCBE, an organization with the sole purpose of fundraising for the LGBTQ+ community. You'll also read about new battles looming for trans-inclusive health coverage under the Trump administration and chat with Heartland Trans Wellness Group director Jonah Yokoyama. Plus, we've included a list of TV shows that meaningfully engage in real-world LGBTQ+ issues and a calendar of remaining Pride Week events, which culminate with the Cincinnati Pride Parade and Festival on Saturday.
