Two reasons why. First, Liberia is an African country and therefore we are not dealing with a minority that is being exploited in the way Africans are here in America. Second, the fault lies with the white power structure. If someone should be getting refused Sex, it should be Rahm Emanuel, not the poor people of color victimized by his policies. Thanks for sharing, Louis. The critic mentions Liberia, but does not discuss it further. If the Lysistrata approach worked there, what's wrong with a filmmaker proposing it here?
