Consideration is given to the idea of citizenship, particularly within the United States of America, and how it hasn't always been extended to members of the U.S. despite their designation as citizens. The author argues that Mormons were not extended their full rights as citizens of the United States despite their commitment to values of the republic and their preferred characteristics of race and gender being predominantly white and male. The author also acknowledges that the "Mormons sparked 'anxiety' in their gentile neighbors" and that polygamy did create a separation between thme and their "victorian" neighbors.
