I saw this on DOC channel a few months back. Interesting and fairly benign view of the Mormon church from black members perspectives. There were a few lines that jumped out.

Tamu Smith is the author and in the movie. These are two quotes from her in the movie.
I don't mind defending the Church to black people. I do mind defending my blackness to members of the Church"


While in the temple a lady came up to me and exclaimed. . ."I just don't know how I am going to recognize you in the hereafter when you are white".

Any chance this will be broadcast in its entirety on KBYU or would it be viewed as unsuitable for their general audience?

Temple or no, someone says that in my earshot and there would be a loud conversation being had.
