are walking back the team's stance. Days after the team made headlines for withdrawing an invitation to the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, the Dodgers are apologizing to the group.
We have asked the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to take their place on the field at our 10th annual LGBTQ+ Pride Night on June 16th. We are pleased to share that they have agreed to receive the gratitude of our collective communities for the lifesaving work that they have done tirelessly for decades.
Los Angeles LGBT Center CEO Joe Hollendoner said the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence will accept the second invite. Below is a statement issued by Hollendoner: Last week’s debacle underscores the dangerous impact of political tactics by those who seek to stoke the flames of anti-LGBTQ bias at a time when our rights are under attack. We must continue to stand together as a community in defense of the rights and recognition of LGBTQ+ people in Los Angeles and beyond.
