76: Hey White People, Let’s Learn to Be Better Allies

In this episode we read from various racist LDS documents, including the BOM and the words of various "prophets" of the Mormon church. But even though that's part of our history, in many cases, that's not where the story has to end. Let's do something about it! We start with a fantastic article by Courtney Ariel entitled, For Our White Friends Desiring to Be Allies. It's informative and eye opening; hopefully you get as much out of it as we did. We also recommend the list of books, below.Michelle Alexander: The New Jim CrowTa-Nehisi Coates: Between the World and MeClaudia Rankine: CitizenIbram X.
