A nun commends Dodgers' handling of Pride Night controversy; some archbishops call it blasphemy

FILE - Sister Jeannine Gramick, left, and Francis DeBernardo, executive director of the Catholic gay rights group New Ways Ministry, pose for a photo in front of St. Peter's Basilica, at the Vatican, after attending Pope Francis' weekly general audience, Wednesday, Feb. 18, 2015. In June 2023, Gramick publicly shared a letter she wrote to the Los Angeles Dodgers, welcoming their re-invitation of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence drag group to the team’s Pride Night, and saying its members deserved recognition for their charity work. “While I am uncomfortable with the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence using the nuns’ old garb to draw attention to bigotry, whether Catholic or not, there is a hierarchy of values in this situation,” Gramick wrote.
