""I am really proud of our theme this year," Sister Roma told me. "No Easter without the T. It's to show our solidarity with the trans community, which is under brutal attack right now.""
""The transgender community has been at the forefront of queer liberation," added Roma. "From the Compton's Cafeteria riots to Stonewall - there is no LGB without the T.""
""Rainbow energy is brighter than life itself," proclaimed Sister Shelita Corndog during the opening prayer. "Free stolen immigrants and all of us who Trump would disappear." She ended with a directive: "Unleash our joy!""
Easter in Dolores Park drew massive crowds for Hunky Jesus, transforming the park into a vibrant mix of celebration and political protest. The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence centered the event on trans solidarity with the theme "No Easter without the T" in direct response to intensified attacks on transgender rights. Hosts and performers led speeches, prayers, and theatrical moments that tied queer history to contemporary resistance. Speakers included elected officials and community leaders. The event blended defiant joy, calls to protect immigrants and transgender people, and a reaffirmation of queer communal resilience.
