This episode focuses on Shiralee’s story, an LDS woman of multiple ethnic heritages. Not claiming any single cultural identity, and having lived in many locations, Shiralee has adopted a fundamental identity based on “gospel culture”. Yet as she has moved to different states and countries, she has been surprised at the variations of attitudes and opinions between members. PhD student Stephen Cameron and Dr Matthew Bowman discuss Shiralee’s story, exploring the inevitable disparities between members as the church continues to globalize.
