342: Polynesian Musings on White Supremacy: Maoputasi Young

from A Thoughtful Faith - Mormon / LDS · host Open Stories Foundation

In the wake of Joanna Brook's book that starkly presented a case for Mormon white supremacy, Samoan Mormon, Tasi Young, BYU alumna and die-hard Cougars fan wrote to the Salt Lake Tribune asking for the name of BYU to be changed sparking an important conversation among the Mormon Polynesian community. What has been the effect of Mormon White Supremacy on Polynesians? Two Afakasi (half-castes), (Tasi a Samoan and Gina who is  Maori) ponder and critique what it means to be Polynesian/Pasifika in a white supremacist church.
