You're taking a very innocent tweet and ascribing a whole load of hate to it. Honestly I wish I'd never sent it.

I am glad you sent it, and appreciate your work. Don't need a whitesplainer telling me what is and isn't racist. Let's keep your name in mind. Will never hurt to propose it. The worst that will happen will voters will say no. Right?

Stop. You are only digging a bigger hole for yourself. If you don’t like Early Medieval England (which is not racist btw) then suggest something else as an alt to the actually racist phrase Anglo-Saxon.

Thing is, Early Medieval England isn't (as far as I'm aware) any more exclusionary than Anglo-Saxon. If it were being advertised as "British" (which it isn't) or "Insular" then yes, it would be erasing Celtic peoples. As it is, AS as a term also excludes Celtic peoples.

It really isn’t and it doesn’t have a horribly racist history either. No term will likely be perfect but having a bunch of white people preach about racism to a MOC is gross as hell. Early Medieval England is a good alternative.
