Re: 07: The Young Lords
I never saw the "incestuous" aspect as either overly obvious, or a problem. After all, Colonial society seems to have great similarities to Egyptian. Pharaohs and other high muckity-mucks routinely married close female relatives, as a matter of course, in imitation of the gods. Perhaps, some sub-sets of Colonial society saw nothing untoward in this.
