Silenced Priest Chooses Exile Over Racial Policy Fallout
In Los Angeles, Rev. John V. Coffield announces a self-imposed exile to Chicago in protest of California Proposition 14 and archdiocesan orders to refrain from speaking on race. Coffield, 50, had faced earlier “enforced vacation” and cites conflict with Cardinal James Mentyre over race discourse. The archdiocese says no discipline was imposed and permission for absence was granted. Coffield says his exile is a protest against silence and a bid to show disapproval of the vote and policies. Ascension Church pastor Coffield describes a diverse South Side parish with roughly equal numbers of Black, Mexican-American, and Caucasian parishioners.
