Black LDS?
Interesting page: Black History Timeline | Blacklds.org
It seems that Joseph was adamant upon a Priesthood for people of all race, yet perhaps Brigham was unaware of this?

Joseph Smith was giving the priesthood to the linage of Cain but after further revelation put a stop to it [Book of Moses].

What's the point of the original post?
This comes from a non-member, who routinely engages in contention in the chat room, who hails from a country where...well, their record on Civil Rights is less than laudable???

Haha, I agree with you on our failed civil rights (as much as just about every other countries' failing in that area in the modern era) the point of this post was to see if the timeline was accurate or not, via the comments of others.

The practice was discontinued after the Pearl of Great Price, but does it matter? I don't think so and nor does anyone who doesn't have an ax to grind.
All I know right now is that I'm listening to "Rockin' Daddy" by Howlin' Wolf. Maybe I'll go to the Provo Temple and get his temple work done.

Well, I hope you're not saying I'm bringing up this topic to 'incite' something. Because that certainly is not the case. If it was, I'd be straight up about it.

I think the main point is it is in the past. As members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints we accept the authority of our Prophets and the revelations they receive. Perhaps we don't understand or always like what is revealed. But, ours is not always to understand but to follow in obedience. The point is Heavenly Father revealed to our Prophet that the time was over for the ban. And, I am thankful to God for His revelations. So , please stop
