| 1638704631470600192 | LDS members I've said this a million times, you harbor White supremacists within your church and this is a horrendous example. They spread hate towards Blacks and then sit next to you in Church on Sunday. @LDSchurch @KylosCracked https://t.co/I8bWM8ON1a | 117 |
| 1638721586655281152 | @KeneAkers @LDSchurch @KylosCracked I just finished Mormonism and White Supremacy by Joanna Brooks yesterday. We have a problem and she lays out the history and what the church and its members can do to repent and improve. I highly recommend! https://t.co/anDVwbsMcH | 13 |

| 1638712958388695041 | @KeneAkers @LDSchurch @KylosCracked So true, this is from a racist so called “Christian” who called me a “disciple of Satan” last August because I called him out on his racism https://t.co/oBHZti3b06 | 4 |
| 1638725737313083392 | @joseortizme @LDSchurch @KylosCracked One of the top ten books I've read. I've been through this one three times already... There is a horrible problem in the LDS Church with White supremacy....... The worst part is it also has members not capable of irradicating it so it festers and gets worse. ✊🏾 | 3 |
| 1638735516211478529 | @KeneAkers @LDSchurch @KylosCracked Agreed. It is sin. The church demands four things from its membership when seeking forgiveness: recognize the sin, confess, ask forgiveness from the offended party and god, make restitution. They need to follow these exact steps in repenting of their institutional racism | 2 |
