Debunking Polygamy Denial aims to be a resource for individuals to have easy access to important source quotes and information to repond to the growing Polygamy Denial movement. We also have a Facebook page and Youtube channel to share additional content related to responding to Polygamy Deniers.
  For a detailed paper on why Polygamy Denial is not a tenable historical position, see the paper “Joseph Smith’s Polygamy: Fact or Fiction?”. For a longer study on Polygamy Denial arguments and why they are not found persuasive by the Mormon historical community, see Mark Tensemeyer’s chapter “ ‘Old Wom[e]n’s Tales’ versus the Historical Verification of Joseph Smith’s Polygamy” in the new book Secret Covenants: New Insights on Early Mormon Polygamy edited by Cheryl Bruno and being released by Signature Books on May 20, 2024. Historian Brian Hales has also compiled some helpful materials responding to the Polygamy Denier movement, see for example his “Joseph Smith did not fight or deny polygamy Study Guide” flier and his compilation “Eyewitness Accounts of Joseph Smith and Polygamy”.
  For more details regarding Joseph Smith’s polygamy, Brian Hales’ website JosephSmithsPolygamy.org is an excellent resource. For a longer history of polygamy as taught and practiced by Joseph Smith, Brian Hales’ book series Joseph Smith’s Polygamy Volume 1 and Volume 2 are well sourced and accessible for a general audience.
