LGBTQ+ groups withdraw from Dodgers' Pride Night after team disinvites legendary charity

Following public outcry and criticism from a number of Catholic groups, the Los Angeles Dodgers have opted to withdraw an invitation that they previously extended to The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a local organization that has been accused of mocking Christianity. Jasmine Viel reports.

Several LGBTQ+ groups in the Los Angeles area have withdrawn from participating in the Los Angeles Dodgers' 10th annual Pride Night in solidarity with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a legendary LGBTQ+ charity and protest group that the Dodgers disinvited Monday.

The Los Angeles LGBT Center and the ACLU of Southern California announced Thursday that they will not participate in Pride Night unless the Dodgers reinvite the Sisters.
