      If you're looking to see a collection of racists show unequivocally that the term "Anglo-Saxon" is racist and that medieval historians need to abandon it, have I got a bunch of replies for you! Solidarity with John whose mentions are a garbage fire.https://twitter.com/john_overholt/status/1191334105725722629 …

      The term “Anglo-Saxon” is inextricably bound up with pseudohistorical narratives of white supremacy, and gives aid and comfort to contemporary white supremacists. Scholars of medieval history must abandon it. http://www.historyworkshop.org.uk/misnaming-the-medieval-rejecting-anglo-saxon-studies/ … pic.twitter.com/Ne6ey9S48L

      It doesn't have historical relevance though. It wasn't used by early medieval English people to describe themselves. It is a specifically racist invention of the nineteenth century. It is ahistoric so we can just bin it and use a more precise term.

      As early medieval English. This is really all laid out in the article. I would suggest you read it. If early medieval people called themselves Englisc, overwhelmingly, why use an invented term to refer to them? Why not take their word for it?

      Replying to @GoingMedieval

      Thank you very much for your thread. As an English & Literature teacher this has been very valuable. I had text books describing that period as Anglo Saxon. I think it should be changed to the adequate term you mention in your thread. Thing is, Is it possible to reverse all that?

      No one is asking to change older publication titles. But we have as a field moved past MANY terms that used to be really common. It happens in every field.

          We no longer say "Dark Ages" for example. We just say early medieval. It's not that hard to change.

          Oh, Dark Ages. I never liked that term, but it was broadly used in my history classes in high school. I prefered to call that as you mention, early medieval (or, "Temprana Edad Media", in my Spanish language).
