The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) does not keep records on the race of their members, so there are not official numbers on how many blacks are members of the Church. However, the Church has experienced a lot of growth in Africa as well as predominantly Black areas of the Southern United States over the past 20 years, as well as a lot of growth in Haiti, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, and other predominantly Black areas - so there is quite a large percentage of Black Mormons.
