An excellent piece. One could stop there, but that would be doing a grave disservice to the timely and informative nature of the work. The Author's deep societal introspection, duly considered, and informed opinion, is matched only by the precision of her prose. It's measured style matches the thrust of the argument being proffered. Excellent sourcing only adds to the near perfection of the article. If one were to be able to read only one thing with regard to the referenced issue at hand, it would be this. An unquestionably important and worthwhile read. Five stars! As an aside, brought to mind, at least as far as your critic believes, is a relevant quote from the inimitable Samuel Langhorne Clemens. "Each man is afraid of his neighbor's disapproval--a thing which, to the general run of the human race, is more dreaded than wolves and death." - Mark Twain
