Let's go Dodgers.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have built a brand on being “for the community”—a team that represents the cultural diversity and resilience of Los Angeles. Yet behind the celebrations of heritage nights, bobblehead giveaways, and sell-out crowds, there remains an uncomfortable truth that cannot be swept under the stadium seats: the Dodgers’ past association with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
For many fans, especially those from immigrant families, ICE represents fear, separation, and systemic injustice. Communities across Los Angeles have been directly affected by deportations, raids, and policies that tear families apart. To partner with or show support for such an institution, even indirectly, runs counter to the values of inclusivity and belonging the Dodgers claim to embody.
That history may not always make headlines today, but it hasn’t been forgotten. Fans carry those memories with them, and it’s important for the organization to be reminded that community trust cannot be rebuilt through promotional campaigns alone. True accountability comes from acknowledging past missteps, committing to transparency, and making clear that future partnerships reflect the team’s responsibility to the city it represents.
The Dodgers are more than just a baseball team—they are a symbol of Los Angeles. And symbols matter. If they want to continue being embraced as the city’s team, they must prove that their loyalty lies with the people in the stands, not with agencies that have harmed them.
Fans have the power to demand better. Reminding the Dodgers of this history is not about dwelling on the past—it’s about ensuring the team’s actions align with the values they proudly display on the field.
The message is simple: we remember, and we expect better.
Let's go Dodgers.
