Catholics believed that black people were afflicted by the curse of ham and mark of cain and used that as a justification for slavery. This was a common belief in Christianity.

Calling it a "core belief" is a bit of a strawman.

The ancient church had a ban on gentiles joining the church until Acts when Peter received a revelation that opened the work to them. —also blacks could always join the LDS church.

They could be members, they just couldn't have the priesthood. I purely believe this was human error that had gone on for too long and God had enough and had to tell the prophet "it's time to change." Think about Moses and Joshua for example.

Not a core belief, they could always be members. Will your next video be on Catholic Churches being racially segregated in the U.S. in the 18 and 1900s?
