disinvitations
Taking back welcomes
Disinvitations are withdrawals of invitations previously extended.
Someone who was invited to a wedding, speaking engagement, or party may receive a disinvitation when circumstances change or the host has second thoughts: The university's disinvitation of the controversial speaker sparked debate about free speech.
The word often appears in contexts involving public backlash or social pressure.
