520 | |a Significant numbers of blacks joined the LDS Church after the 1978 decision admitting black males into the priesthood. Using data from the LDS Afro-American Oral History Project at Brigham Young University, we examine 205 LDS African Americans' accounts of the historic priesthood ban. Their explanations fall into five categories on a continuum ranging from acceptance of traditional Mormon ideology at one end to a new ideology which reverses the culpability of whites and blacks at the other. Cognitive dissonance theory explains relationships between these accounts and self-integration. While positions at the ends of the continuum imply self-integration through the assertion of either a religious or racial identity, intermediate categories assume that an integrated self is negotiated through a more or less symmetrical balancing of religious and racial identities. Our conclusion discusses some implications for the Mormon Church. | ||
