Trumps
(admittedly
few)
LGBT
supporters dubbed him the most proLGBT Republican presidential nominee in
history.
The Log Cabin Republicans, which
had withheld its endorsement of Trump,
congratulated the president-elect in a
statement upon news of his victory.
Mr. Trumps unprecedented and
repeated overtures to the LGBTQ
community were invariably lauded by
our organization, and we look forward
to seeing those words turn to action in
a Trump administration, the statement
says. We likewise stand rm in our
unwavering commitment to working with
our countrys president-elect to ensure
the historic advances in LGBT freedom
we have fought for and secured will
continue.

WASHINGTON A new guide on LGBT health issues was released last week
from the National LGBTQ Task Force Action Fund and the National Coalition for
LGBT Health to educate voters on top gay health priorities the two organizations
plan to focus on in the coming years.
The guide, dubbed the 10 Key LGBTQ Health Advocacy Priorities Guide, is
billed as an unprecedented document.
This new guide is like no other as it outlines critical health care issues
through an intersectional approach, said Candace Bond-Theriault, policy
counsel for reproductive rights, health and justice at the Task Force. It takes
into consideration the realities that make up the everyday lives of LGBTQ people
such as racial injustice, economic injustice, gender inequality and immigration
status. We believe that in order to improve the lives and health of all LGBTQ
people, a clear understanding that these issues overlap is necessary.
The guide lists the following 10 key areas as priorities: advocating for
reproductive health, rights and justice; creating an AIDS-free generation,
promoting HIV harm reduction and increasing access to pre-exposure
prophylaxis (PrEP); expanding public education and treatment for sexually
transmitted infections (STI) and sexually transmitted diseases (STD); supporting
LGBTQ youth experiencing homelessness; improving transgender health care;
addressing religious exemptions and nondiscrimination laws; promoting LGBTQ
cultural competency; improving access to mental health; expanding access to
aordable health care; and ending violence against LGBTQ people.
Although the guide was designed to educate voters prior to the election this
week, the issues are relevant regardless of the outcome.
Both organizations will host workshops, trainings and informational sessions
on these priority health advocacy issues during the 2017 Creating Change
Conference on Jan. 18-22 and SYNChronicity 2017: the National Conference on
HIV, HCV and LGBT Health, set for April 24-25.
The guide is available online at thetaskforceactionfund.org or on the website
for the National Coalition for LGBT Health.

The stunning result of Tuesdays presidential election stands as a chilling reminder of the work ahead. After eight
years of President Obamas erce advocacy, we grew complacent. We assumed that
since a bare majority of straight Supreme
Court justices voted our way on marriage
that the ght was over. We were wrong.
The United States remains a deeply
sexist, racist, homophobic culture and undoing and overcoming those prejudices
will take more than ling a few well-timed
lawsuits. Realizing those cultural changes

Cut o from further beverages by a bartender, she started complaining and the
bartender denied talking to me, so since
I always carry pens and highlighters, I
Ive always believed that we can conquer bad situations in ways that make
them less bad or even turn them into advantages. In my professional life, this has
never been truer than with the very public bathroom ghts we have been having
in North Carolina. Trans and gender nonconforming youth are being attacked in
N.C. and all over the country, so I chose
to do my community service working for
these youth.
I chose SMYAL for two reasons. First, I
have always admired the important work
they do with D.C. queer youth. Second, if
I am to be punished for ghting for the
safety and dignity of trans youth, it would
be a remarkable honor to do my penance
ghting even more for the safety and dignity of trans youth. SMYAL was the right
organization to help.
The work hasnt been glamorous, but
the best work rarely is. Helping feels good
and it has led me into a deeper relationship with some great people doing amazing work in the city where I live.

How long have you been out and who was
the hardest person to tell?
I rst told my dear friend Bahiyyih when I was
20 and it was like Michael Keaton trying to tell
Kim Basinger that hes Batman. It got easier
after that.
Whos your LGBT hero?
Wolverines son Daken is pretty amazing
and Northstar was the rst mainstream
superhero to come out. The Question has a
cool sense of style with her faceless cloak and
dagger drag. Among us Muggles, Harvey Milk
had a courage, candor and generosity rarely
seen in public gures.

By KEVIN MAJOROS
Schuyler Bailar will receive the Community
Advocate Award at the keynote speaker
at the 19th annual SMYAL Fall Brunch on
Sunday, Nov. 13 at Mandarin Oriental. He
was featured this summer in the Washington
Blades annual sports edition.
Bailar graduated from Georgetown Day
School in Washington in 2014 as a top
student and an award-winning swimmer.
He was aggressively recruited by most of
the Ivy League and eventually committed
to swim for Harvard.
Bailar is the rst transgender man to
compete on a NCAA Division 1 college
swim team and the rst transgender
man to compete in any sport on a NCAA
Division 1 mens team.
Throughout
this
journey,
but
particularly in high school, Bailar
struggled with issues of body image
and self-esteem, often battling with
disordered eating and self-harm. In the
spring of his senior year, Bailar decided to
take a gap year before college to deal with
these issues. In therapy it became clear
that his real struggle was with gender
