      Very relevant to the current discussion in early medieval studies with some people attempting to argue that racism is an ‘American problem’ - racism has always been here in the uk and we have to fight it here #MedievalTwitterhttps://twitter.com/BenHCarrington/status/1184127074857971712 …

      Racism always plays away, never at home. "Racism is always displaced. If it's acknowledged in England, it’s in the past. Or “racism is abroad, overseas it’s never here.” When it does flare up, we deny it. It’s excused as banter".

      I have been confused by that construction. I thought the point was that racism manifests differently in different places and that the semantic range of words varies?

      Well, one would think that. But there have been various UK academics claiming that racism & racist associations with the term “Anglo-Saxon” are American problems, not wider problems.

      I think that's a bit of a straw man in most - though not all - contexts here. Rather, people like I and @DJMHarland have been at pains to point out that terms like 'English', which may seem quite neutral in the US, are anything but so here.

      In contrast, Anglo-Saxon *can* hold racist connotations in the UK, but is much less likely to do so. So racism is a persistent problem across the board, but it's lexicon varies. (One of our nastiest right-wing groups are the 'English Defence League'.)

      Okay but it still does. There was a racist tweet circulating around yesterday, people at Brexit rallies calling themselves Anglo-Saxon. English and British hold certain terrible connotations also esp with regards to imperialism and nationalism but the terms themselves are not 1/

      That *does* happen, but I can assure you the English is the main rallying cry of the far right, precisely because it implies a (false and problematic) equation between medieval and modern identities; Anglo-Saxon is trickier there, and when used tends to be elided into English.

      I agree that it draws a connection between the medieval and modern that is false. What alternatives would you suggest for someone like myself who studies early Medieval English speaking communities? Asking seriously here, it’s something I’m grappling with.

          I would also say that discussions about reclaiming terminology seems to only be applied to Anglo-Saxon in these discussions (which has a far worse history) than I do English. And British seems to be seen as unproblematic.

          Yes, I agree. As medievalists we sometimes forget that the empire was forged in the name of Britain and the British.

          On balance, England is better than English. Not perfect, but it still is ultimately Englishness rather than the geographical entity that most of these groups are concerned with.

          How would you define these peoples then, who identified (sometimes) as “Anglisc” (and I’ve been told that term is used by white supremacists too so that’s frustrating). I’m seeing different arguments on this, that England is worse because it = a nation etc.
