"Not One-Drop" of African Blood - Brigham Young’s Curse of Cain Doctrine | Ep. 1906

"Not One-Drop" of African Blood - Brigham Young’s Curse of Cain Doctrine | Ep. 1906

In this new series on Mormon Leadership, historian Matt Harris discusses Mormonism's early racism, focusing on the priesthood and temple ban for Black members. He explores the church's opposition to civil rights, the experiences of Black Latter-day Saints like Jane Manning James and Elijah Abel, and the evolving theology around race. Harris challenges misconceptions about prophetic revelation and the origins of the ban, shedding light on this complex and painful history.
