It appears the pictures of the Church over the past couple of years with the NAACP was not much more than photo ops. Saying the Church hasn't done anything material seems to confirm that notion. I guess a photo op linking arms is something, but perhaps not really something material. Ah well, its so...

I'm certainly glad that the political dominion of the LDS White Citizens Council was broken in San Juan County. We should sing about it, "The night they drove old Dixie down... Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na." That is quite a group of characters. I won’t confirm or deny that I was t...

Oh, wow. How you get out of that without rage in your heart is foreign to me. How has this experience colored your view of the Other?

The fact that a lot of Mormons don't support Trump's immigration stance contradicts the idea that the church is a "conceptually white institution". Now that I carefully read...

Why, Doc? In fact, the rest of his post is based on good science and pushes back on harmful myths. If his message is ignored, you’re going to have much more sickness and death in Utah.
