Lambda Legal mourns the loss of Dolly Parton, a glittering & iconic entertainer, philanthropist, & LGBTQ+ ally. With compassion & grace, Parton lent her voice & resources to show her love for the LGBTQ+ community & everyone living with HIV. Rest in peace, Dolly Parton. We will always love you. 🩷
Black and white photo of Dolly Parton smiling. Text below reads, "Remembering Dolly Parton".Two photos of Dolly Parton smiling. Quote from Lambda Legal CEO Kevin Jennings reads, "Today we lost an icon, both in entertainment and for the bold, consistent support she showed the LGBTQ+ community and everyone living with HIV. Long before it was easy or popular, Dolly Parton told our community that we belonged, and she meant it. She lent her voice and resources to the fight against HIV and AIDS, and stood up, time and again, for the community she embraced as her own, all with the humor, warmth, and grace that made the whole world fall for her. We extend our deepest condolences to Dolly’s family, her friends, and the countless fans whose lives she touched. We will always love her.”
