LDS Church calls Netflix series 'dangerously misleading'
- The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints criticized the Netflix series 'American Primeval' for being dangerously misleading about historical events in mid-19th century Utah, particularly regarding Brigham Young and the Mountain Meadows Massacre.
- The Church stated that the series misrepresents Brigham Young as a villain and inaccurately portrays the Mountain Meadows Massacre as reflective of the entire faith group.
- Historians, including Barbara Jones Brown, expressed confusion and frustration with the series' depiction of historical events, emphasizing the potential harm to perceptions of Mormon and Native histories.
- The Church called for peace and understanding, echoing the message of President Russell M. Nelson that true disciples of Jesus Christ are peacemakers, urging others to promote healing and avoid division.
