Prof Michael Woods’ thoughtful and supportive discussion of the current controversy around the racist connotations of the term ‘Anglo-Saxon’ https://www.historyextra.com/period/anglo-saxon/professor-michael-wood-anglo-saxon-name-debate-is-term-racist/ …
The records of the harrying of the North may well have been exaggerated. Not saying they didn’t do harm, or even clear out towns etc but many existing structures were repaired by the “invaders” or whatever you want to call them. I would also caution the use of concentration camps

I Pink think that I'm quite spot on with the tearm concentration camps; Women being held to be nothing more than sex slaves; Men being held to do effectively slave labour. Plus the Domesday Book it self explaines exactly how William saw England.
