Episode 106: Stay Out of the Ocean | Wyatt Outlaw & the Kirk Holden War and George Q. Cannon
Tina and Hillary cover Commissioner Wyatt Outlaw & the Kirk-Holden War and Utah Territorial candidate George Q. Cannon.
Tina’s Story
Wyatt Outlaw was the first African American to be appointed Town Commissioner and constable of Graham, North Carolina in 1869. BUT when whites objected to being policed by a black man, the KKK lynch Wyatt leading to the Kirk-Holden War.
Hillary’s Story
George Q. Cannon moved up the ranks to become a senior apostle in the Mormon Church and also served as non-voting delegate for Utah Territory in the United States Congress for 10 years beginning in 1872. BUT when political opponents learn of his plural marriages, his seat is jeopardized.
