Understanding The Mountain Meadows Massacre - Janiece Johnson | 51
Manage episode 435008078 series 3505090
Dr Janiece Johnson specialises in American religious history—specifically Mormon history, gender, and the prosecution for the Mountain Meadows Massacre. Janiece worked on Richard E. Turley Jr.'s 'Massacre at Mountain Meadows' book and was the general editor of the recently published Mountain Meadows Massacre: Collected Legal Papers. As a magnificent culmination of her work on the massacre, she wrote and published 'Convicting the Mormons: The Mountain Meadows Massacre in American Culture.
I wanted to speak to Janiece as I've always wanted to learn about the Mountain Meadows Massacre, but there is so much emotion and conspiracy around the topic. I feel privileged that Janiece would join us and share trusted, honest insights into the history and the aftermath of the horrific event.
Some highlights from this episode include how media sensationalism caused a lasting impact on America's perceptions on Latter-day Saints, a definitive answer of whether or not any blame could be placed at Brigham Young's feet, and how Janiece kept her faith strong despite studying such saddening accounts.
