How come there are not any Afro Americans in the Mormon tabernacle choir?

I believe there are currently three African Americans in the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, one female and two males. The reason why the number is so few is because to be in the Choir you must live within a half hours commute of the Tabernacle in Salt Lake City - the black or African American population in that area ranges from 0.1% to 1%. The number of African Americans in the choir reflects that - with the 360 members of the Choir, if 3 of them are black, the percentage is about 0.75%.
In short, the number of blacks or African Americans in the Mormon Tabernacle choir is simply a reflection of how few live in the area.
