Black and Mormon is a 2004 book edited, with an introduction, by Newell G. Bringhurst and Darron T. Smith. It is a collection of articles about Black people and Mormonism, race and the LDS priesthood, and the experience of Black Mormons.
The editors claim the Church "needs to forthrightly confront its past history of racial exclusion and discrimination."[1]
