The four-part DVD set tackles many of the most vexing race questions in the church. Marvin and Darius deal straightforwardly with the myths surrounding scriptural references to skin color and curses and past practices related to equality and the priesthood. The four lectures are entitled:

1. Blacks in the Bible
2. Skin Color and Curses
3. Equality and Priesthood
4. Blacks and the LDS Priesthood

If you don't win, or don't want to wait to see if you won, please support their efforts by purchasing the DVD set. Even better, for every DVD set purchased, they donate a DVD set to men and women throughout the world who desire to have them but cannot afford.

Again, another great give away by MMM. Thanks also to Bros. Perkins and Gray for making this available.

I think many members don't know the full history of blacks and the priesthood (myself included). Things like this are very helpful.

I'd love to win this. Had a great discussion with a girlfriend about this very topic the other day, and how surprised we've been to find that in our educated, affluent LDS community some really idiotic notions about blacks and the priesthood still exist.

My husband and I would love to own this. He has lectured on diversity at work, and we discuss these topics as well. Thank you for the opportunity!
