Columbia News Service post-interviewed Mark Henkel - Zehra Mamdani -4- Feb 2008

National Polygamy Advocate ™ Mark Henkel was post-interviewed by Zehra Mamdani for an article she wrote as a student for the Columbia News Service, on February 26, 2008 - Part 4.  After interviewing Mark Henkel in the previous month, the writer subsequently published an article on February 19, 2008, distributed to many other news sources.  Mark Henkel and the National Polygamy Rights Movement for Unrelated Consenting Adults awere blind-sided: the writer's article contained many negativities that needed to be corrected.  This episode is the fourth part of the discussion in which Mark Henkel sought to help the writer make needed corrections.  In this episode, Mark Henkel addressed the problem of the article elevating two topical non-authorities, all of which poses a threat to the movement of unrelated consenting adult polygamy (UCAP).  One of the ones so elevated had even been quoted using Mark Henkel's own unique style of terminology.  The writer replied that that shows that the gentleman "reads your stuff" and TruthBearer.org. The problem, Mark Henkel explained, is "that he's being elevated when he's irrelevant."  Bringing this Part4 of the podcast to a close, Mark Henkel concluded, "I have no problem with him being quiet.  But I have a problem when he is being elevated - because of the threat he poses to our movement, as the anti-polygamists use him as a poster boy to say that 'force polgamy' is (supposedly) what we're about."  Mark Henkel has always made it emphatically clear that that is not what the movement has ever been about. http://www.NationalPolygamyAdvocate.com
