On this episode, Matthew L. Harris discusses the history of the Church of Latter-Day Saints complicated—and often controversial racial heritage—from Joseph Smith and Brigham Young through the civil rights movement to the moment in 1978 when church President Spencer W. Kimball finally opened the priesthood to include Black members of the church.

Matthew Harris is Professor of History at Colorado State University Pueblo; he specializes in race and religion, civil rights, Mormon history, African American History, and American Religious history. His latest book 'Second-Class Saints' published by Oxford University Press takes a deep look at the history of Black Mormons and the struggle for racial equality within the church.
