Not all Utahns were included at the 1895 convention, Judge Paige Petersen noted.
• “Women were in the audience, but they weren’t any of the delegates,” Petersen said.
• “How do we know … what they thought the meaning of their rights were?” Peterson asked. “It seems important in this context because women are the ones that experience pregnancy and experience childbirth.”

What??? The racist, sexist, violent, polygamist church run by rich white men didn’t want to ratify the civil rights amendments???
Fyi, black people were restricted from having the priesthood (essentially the power allowing you to perform every saving ordinance) until 1978. It is Mormon doctrine that they are essentially cursed.
