An example of "diversification" in the "infrastructure" of the  free-thinking 
herd (popular academia terms).
 
I assume, but don't know, that the aforementioned author has found a place  
in the herd, although not a trained historian, and is the hit of this
forum because, in part (a) a woman; and (b) a member of some ethnic  group 
previously mistreated by the evil Western European culture.  
 
And that Mr.Herb Barger, distinguished Jefferson Family Historian, is  
maligned and/or his expertise not recognized and respected  to a great  extent 
because (a) a man and (b) not a member of some ethnic group previously  mistreated 
by the evil Western European culture, but is himself a a member  of said 
culture, and (c) dares to correct the aforementioned author for her  factual 
errors. 
 
Please confirm if these assumptions are correct so I can at last  understand 
what all the controversy is about.
 
Thank you.
