The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence Chapter L.A.

I like to think of [the habit] as a bonfire or a lighthouse, so that light can shine out into places where there are no resources and there isn’t a strong community—Sister Unity
They’re the tricksters of the movement — they make us laugh, and laughing is powerful—Catholic activist Rosa Manriquez, who lives near Dodger Stadium. "I doubt there's any nun worth her ruler and her rosary who’s upset about the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence

Clueless Marco Rubio is outraged that LA Dodgers honored drag nuns!
The News said that...
The Dodgers shouldn’t side with a homophobic
A senator who is a pressuring conservative Catholic 
Republican Florida Sen. Marco Rubio’s hissy fit
Said the Sisters an anti-Catholic group of activist
Called them out for their fabulous drag as nuns attire 
Added they pervert Christian teachings with their satire
Complained to Major League Baseball bosses from his dugout
Outside of California, where Rubio should butt out 
The Sisters had no inkling it would court controversy 
Midwestern activists and Florida elected officials show no mercy
LA Dodgers dump Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence  
They caved to the pressure from the senator’s divulgence
The team was slammed for bowing to pressure 

We got a crowd that's in a frenzy Bob
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence is a charity group 
founded in San Francisco in 1979, now in the loop
with affiliates across the U.S.A.
Including the chapter in L.A. 
That started in the mid-1990s 
Members dress in drag as nuns
Make us laugh bring us to our knees
Wear elaborate makeup, activists and are anti-guns!

Batter-up!
After the LA Dodgers uninvited an LGBTQ+ group to its Pride Night,
the Mayor of Anaheim, California invited the group to join 
her for the Pride Night held by the team’s local rival, the LA Angels

LGBTQ+ advocates Grand Slam!
By canceling an appearance 
by the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence 
A non-profit LGBTQ+ group of performers 
And activists who dress as campy nuns
The Sisters are getting 
an award after decades of charity work
Marco doesn’t understand why

A Curveball For The Sisters!
They’ve grown into an international network of “orders”
Initially scheduled to receive Los Doyers’ 
Community Hero Award at the team’s 
annual Pride Night on June sixteen
Devoted “to community service, ministry 
Promoting human rights, respect for diversity 
Outreach to those on the edges, and spiritual enlightenment” 
According to their mission statement

A Wild Pitch!
“California's kaleidoscope of q***r expression, 
neon-bearded prankster nuns can seem like 
Drag Queen Story Hour on acid
a Catholic-school fever dream” 
Ron DeSantis whispered into ChatGPT

The International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia
The LA Dodgers posted on social media 
that they were disinviting the sisters 
to the team's annual Pride Night 
After they received some "controversy" 
over including them 
The group was supposed to receive 
an award recognizing their activism.

Rubio said, who mock the faith with the motto ‘Go forth and sin some more!’

A Sister Bats!
We are both silly and serious 
We use our flamboyance in service to our 
charity work and our message 
"'There is room in our world for each person 
to be who they are, as they are, free from shame or guilt, 
alive in joy and love for their own self,'" 
"While we may no longer appear on Dodgers Pride Night 
We will be out on the streets of Los Angeles continuing 
to serve and uplift our community"
They added, "If being true to oneself with love, joy, and pride is a sin, then we, having been canceled by the New York Post, and now the Dodgers, will do what we always do. We will out and sin some more."

Home Run!
The Dodgers are taking back their ban on the drag group Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence and have invited them again to be part of LGBTQ+ Pride Night.
