I don't doubt the author's personal experience. But the piece is inherently political; she uses each personal anecdote to generalize about a group of people, or at least point at that. For every one of her anecdotes, I feel there was definitely 'another side of the story to tell'. But I also don't blame her - as I mentioned, you don't get published without drawing a little bit of blood, which is sadly how it works in a lot of the press these days.
