The complexities surrounding conversations of racism today are numberless but the root of the solution is the two great commandments: love God and love your neighbor as yourself. On this week\u2019s episode, we talk with Abe Mills and Stephen Jones, two black Latter-day Saints, about their experiences with racism within Church culture, the faith of those who came before them, and why they don\u2019t hesitate to share their faith in Jesus Christ.

"Understanding what He did for us, it gives us hope, which we live in a world with a lot of people that have no hope or they\u2019ve lost their hope\u2014whether it\u2019s hope in equality, hope in fairness, hope in whatever\u2014they\u2019ve lost their hope, but the gospel has taught us hope because we know what Jesus Christ did for us. It has taught us understanding because we know Christ was the example of understanding, and on top of that, it has taught us forgiveness, or how to forgive, in a time where forgiveness is needed greatly."
