"In this essay I explore the representation of one marginalized group (Jews, Judaism, and the Jewish Holocaust) by another (Mormons) and argue that Mormon representations of Jewish life and experience (especially the experience of the Holocaust) are often flawed because Mormon authors do not recognize the competing values of the groups and thus create a differend that cannot be solved."
