    Unsettling Mormonism w/ Nic

    Unsettling Mormonism w/ Nic

    Ever think to yourself, "Dang, Mormonism is suuuper settler colonial"? Well you've thought right! Nic, founder of the @Unsettling_Mormonism project, joins us to discuss how Mormonism views the land now called the "United States," the Indigenous peoples of past and present who have resisted US settler colonialism, and themselves, who they deem the "faithful." We look at the links between Mormonism and US imperialism, and of course we wrap it up linking socialism and decolonization!
