The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has officially released the first episode in their four-season series Book of Mormon Videos. This series will tell the story of the Book of Mormon through captivating visuals and engaging story telling. Season 1 recounts Lehi's journey to the Promised Land with his family, in addition to all the material through the book of Enos. One video will be released each Friday through the end of 2019 to complete Season 1.
Episode one of Season one runs 18 minutes long and explores Lehi's personal growth from concerned disciple to prophet of the Lord. The video covers the events in 1 Nephi 1–2. Viewers will watch Lehi receive his prophetic call in a vision from the Lord, Lehi depart from Jerusalem with his family, Laman and Lemuel's mounting tensions in the family, and Lehi's eloquent poem in the Valley of Lemuel.

The First Presidency said in a statement on September 20, 2019:
It is our hope that these videos will lead to increased study and understanding of the teachings of the Book of Mormon. The videos should support but not replace personal study of the Book of Mormon. We invite all to use the videos and images at home and at church. They may also be used in introducing others to the restored gospel of Jesus Christ.

For Black CEOs in Silicon Valley, humiliation is a part of doing business

For Black CEOs in Silicon Valley, humiliation is a part of doing business The Mercury News  /  by Bloomberg News  /  9h By Priya Anand and Sarah McBride | Bloomberg Will Hayes has grown accustomed to an awkward start to business meetings. On numerous occasions, venture capitalists would confuse Hayes, the head of software company Lucidworks Inc., with another man on his executive team. The investor would introduce himself, extend a handshake to the other guy and say, “Good to meet you, Will.” It’s strange because they don’t look alike. Also, Hayes is Black, and his deputy is White. This happened so many times, in dozens of meetings over many years, that Hayes and his longtime colleague, Keith Messick, say it’s no coincidence. Such unintentional instances of racism, they say, have become a routine—and insidious—part of doing business at a Black-led company in Silicon Valley. Protests over the death of George Floyd at the knee of a White police offi...

Fact Check: Trump lied 46 times at recent rallies Forty-six false and misleading claims the president has made at recent rallies. We reviewed all of President Donald Trump’s speeches at campaign rallies over five days, from Oct. 12 to Oct. 16. There were six speeches and combined, Trump spoke for more than eight hours, averaging about one hour and 20 minutes per speech. Below is a compilation of 46 of the false and misleading claims he made; Trump often repeated those claims at multiple rallies. We have organized them by subject matter. Trump spoke in  Sanford, Florida , on Oct. 12, his first rally since recovering from COVID-19. It was the shortest of the five speeches, at just over an hour. The following night, the Republican nominee spoke in  Johnstown, Pennsylvania,  followed by an Oct. 14 rally in  Des Moines, Iowa , then  Greenville, North Carolina,  on Oct. 15. He finished up the week with two rallies: one in  Ocala, Florida , and another in...
