TL;DR Summary

The Los Angeles Dodgers have apologized and re-invited the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to their Pride Night after removing them from the lineup under pressure from conservative Catholic groups. The decision was met with backlash from LGBTQ+ and civil rights groups, local politicians, and even Dodgers employees. The Sisters will receive the Community Hero Award they were originally set to receive. The satirical performance and activist organization has a decades-long history of raising awareness and money for LGBTQ+ causes while providing comfort and resources to AIDS patients and unhoused queer and trans youth.
