Skin of Blackness: The Book of Mormon Curse | LDS Discussions 57 | Ep. 1943

Mormon Stories Podcast - A podcast by Dr. John Dehlin

In this episode, we dive into part two of our exploration of the "skin of blackness" mentioned in the Book of Mormon. Historically, leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints identified Native Americans as the Lamanites. But as we approach the early 2000s, new theories have emerged. Could the "skin of blackness" refer to paint, tattoos, or dark animal skins? Join us as we unpack these intriguing ideas and their implications for understanding the text.
