So far the chapter on civil rights and the John birch society is the most interesting to me!

So wild to me that while polygamy was being practiced women had a lot more opportunities outside the home because of the community childcare w/ sister wives. Women were going to medical school & getting educations. As soon as polygamy got banned within Mormonism… women’s education opportunities regressed within Mormonism…

But like there must be a better way to have this community care without polygamy???
