Pride Month kicked off today, and all month long, television studios and networks — from NBCUniversal to Here TV — will celebrate and amplify Lgbtqia+ voices and stories.
Throughout the month, “Today” will cover Pride celebrations and feature guests including Bowen Yang, Indya Moore and Angelica Ross. NBC News will air “Transamerica,” a special that spotlights the legal barriers transgender people face as well as the trans lawmakers working to break them down. MSNBC anchors Jonathan Capehart, Lindsey Reiser, Kendis Gibson and Yasmin Vossoughian will spotlight LGBTQ+ stories and travel to impacted communities. Meanwhile, Peacock, NBCUniversal’s streaming service, will feature Pride-related documentaries and coverage, including “No Longer a Death Sentence: How Living with HIV Has Changed 40 Years Later,” “Stonewall 50: The Rebellion!” and “Rebellion! Stonewall.” Daily news shows “The Mehdi Hasan Show” and “Zerlina” will also feature segments on the Peacock news commentary channel “The Choice.”
