2022 was a difficult year for the LGBTQIA+ population. A U.S. Supreme Court Justice suggested same sex marriage was unconstitutional, and state legislatures in Ohio and around the country introduced hundreds of bills targeting transgender rights. A mass shooting at gay nightclub in Colorado killed five and wounded 19. A planned Drag Storytime in Columbus attracted protesters from a white nationalist organization. Despite acceptance by most Americans, LGBTQIA+ rights are under assault. 

This edition of Dialogue will examine the state of LGBTQIA+ rights and the debate over gender-affirming medical care and will look for ways calm the debate.
