This is an example of the kind of racist bull**** and scientifically
impossible nonsense the LDS Church has taught for over 100 years.
This idiot racist so-called Mormon 'prophet' claims here that the skin
of the Indians is getting lighter because they are becoming Mormons. And
the LDS Church member****p actually has believed this racist horse****.
"I saw a striking contrast in the progress of the Indian people... they
are fast becoming a white and delightsome people. For years they have
been growing delightsome, and they are now becoming white and
delightsome, as they were promised... The children in the home placement
program in Utah are often lighter than their brothers and sisters in the
hogans on the reservation.
"At one meeting a father and mother and their sixteen-year-old daughter
were present, the little member girl—sixteen—sitting between the dark
father and mother, and it was evident she was several shades lighter
than her parents—on the same reservation, in the same hogan, subject to
the same sun and wind and weather. . . . These young members of the
Church are changing to whiteness and to delightsomeness

Kimball - Improvement Era, December 1960, pp. 922-23

Here's that old racist asshole 'prophet', Brigham Young:
"You see some cl***** of the human family that are black, uncouth, un-
comely, disagreeable and low in their habits, wild, and seemingly
deprived of nearly all the blessings of the intelligence that is
generally bestowed upon mankind. The first man that committed the odious
crime of killing one of his brethren will be cursed the longest of any
one of the children of Adam. Cain slew his brother. Cain might have been
killed, and that would have put a termination to that line of human
beings. This was not to be, and the Lord put a mark upon him, which is
the flat nose and black skin."
~~ Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses 7:290-291 (October 9, 1859)
