Like most difficult subjects in Mormon history and practice, says Joanna Brooks, the priesthood and temple ban on Blacks has been managed carefully in LDS institutional settings with a combination of avoidance, denial, selective truth-telling, and determined silence. As America begins to come to terms with the costs of white privilege to Black lives, this book urges a soul-searching examination of the role American Christianity has played in sustaining everyday white supremacy by assuring white people of their innocence. 000931038 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on April 27, 2020). 000931038 61020 $$aChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000931038 650_0 $$aRace relations$$xReligious aspects$$xMormon Church$$xHistory. 000931038 650_0 $$aRace relations$$xReligious aspects$$xChurch of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints$$xHistory. 000931038 650_0 $$aWhite supremacy movements$$xReligious aspects$$xHistory. 000931038 650_0 $$aMormon Church$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000931038 650_0 $$aRacism$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 000931038 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9780190081768 000931038 830_0 $$aOxford scholarship online. 000931038 85280 $$bebk$$hOxford Scholarship Online 000931038 85640 $$3Oxford scholarship online$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190081768.001.0001$$zOnline Access 000931038 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:931038$$pGLOBAL_SET 000931038 980__ $$aEBOOK 000931038 980__ $$aBIB 000931038 982__ $$aEbook 000931038 983__ $$aOnline
