This opened my eyes and heart to Emma as I felt her pain in this sisters' words and actions. I recently watched Discovering Emma with my husband and loved it! What a great lady! It is easy to judge her in light of her actions seen from others eyes. This movie allowed us to see her side for the first time. Perhaps 10 years ago or more, we were living in Las Vegas and had the wonderful opportunity to listen to Gracia Jones. She spoke of growing up with an increasing awareness of her great grandfather, Joseph Smith. Sister Jones said that Joseph and Emmas' posterity are in every faith that exist in the world. Over the past year, we have read articles in the Church News regarding Joseph and Emma Smiths'and Brigham Youngs' posterity coming together. We pray and have faith that the remnant of their posterity will hear the message of the Restoration and become one with the Saints again.
