Letter: Wilkinson showed courage with complaint

To the editor:

I imagine that Sarah Wilkinson thought for a while before making a formal complaint against Mr. Jacques' remark. I am glad she did.

It takes courage to stand up against defamatory comments directed at oneself or at any group about whom unpleasant, insulting generalizations are made.

We all know that these remarks are often made as "jokes." Bravo, Sarah!
