Here are a few more sessions we want to shout out heading into the Symposium weekend!

On Friday, @FemiLinzi and @muchcrap will take a deep dive into curses and ciphers of Mormon history (think of it as a live, bonus episode of @sunstonehistpod)

[Sunstone @SunstoneOrg]

Additionally on Friday, Larissa Kanno Kindred will be speaking about research on LDS women and garments and Malia Kealana Burgess will be leading a workshop on connecting with our ancestors (attendees will create a collage for display so please bring photos of your ancestors!).

We have to take a moment to shout out the incredible Matt Page for this illustration! You can see him talk about how he interfaces with Mormonism through humor and satire on Friday as the Symposium!

[Benjamin Park @BenjaminEPark]

So excited for @kkdumez’s @SunstoneOrg lecture tomorrow night. If you’re in Utah, you should attend—it’s free!
