Ask yourself, how many black people live in Utah TODAY?
Doesn’t it make you wonder just a bit?
Another thing, Mitt Romney was 31 years old, just starting Bain Capital and a father of three children when the LDS Church finally ended its racial discrimination. I remember it well. I was a 22 year old Mormon woman who had just MET the first black person in her WHOLE life. I understand racial discrimination.

Look , you are talking to a Southern Baptist raised in Georgia, who lived in Colorado and Massachusetts, who is now Methodist... and the reason Utah and Colorado are whiter than the South, is because Black Slavery existed in the South before the Civil war and not in Utah or Colorado..duh!

There are several reasons black people don't relocate to Utah. In fact, they're the same reasons white people don't either.
If you'd like I'll name a few ~ it's a desert, it has 4 months more winter than other places, it's culturally dissimilar to places black people and white people like to live, employment has been tight until quite recently and the local lack of interest in keeping out illegal aliens makes it hard for entry level job folks to get jobs, etc.
Do you need more?
