Something Completely Different
Monday, July 27, 2015 at 10:39AM I've just istened to episode 551 of the Mormon Stories podcast, "Lindsay Hansen Park's Year of Polygamy." She's refreshing, well-balanced and articulate. Then I checked out her podcast episodes: Year of Polygamy Podcast. Wow.
Most Mormon presentations drip with sanctimoniousness or heavy scholarly tones. Lindsay is a young mother finding her way, with a fresh open-minded approach. She uncovers mountains of historical information, of which Mormons (be they Fundamentalists or L.D.S.) are completely unaware. It's a monumental body of work that will have strong influence for years to come.
