The 21st century has seen very positive movement for LGBT+ rights. In the last few years, the overturning of DOMA, the SCOTUS ruling in favor of the Marriage Equality Act, American transgender politicians elected to office, and landmark moments such as Apple becoming the most valuable company in the world under the leadership of an openly gay CEO have advanced LGBT awareness and understanding. In a world full of LGBT questions, The ABC's of LGBT+ has the answers.

El abc del género es, como su subtítulo menciona, un manual con nociones mínimas para que podamos reflexionar, reconstruir el discurso y, de ser necesario, replantear nuestra mirada. Este libro busca abrir conversación sin polarizarla, propiciar el diálogo y la escucha sobre temas que parecen imposibles de debatir sin conflicto, pero de los cuales es apremiante hablar y generar espacios de encuentro para la toma de decisiones a nivel personal, familiar e institucional (en la escuela, el trabajo y las instancias de gobierno).

In January 2021, Steph Lentz was fired from her job as an English teacher at a Sydney Christian school after she came out as a lesbian. A hardcore Christian during her teens and 20s, Steph once preached against homosexuality and defended her church's conservative teachings about marriage and sex – that is, until she fell in love with a woman at her church and her world turned upside-down. In the midst of ongoing debates about religious freedom and discrimination against LGBTQIA+ people in Australia, Steph's story is timely and necessary.
