(I should clarify - I acknowledged that it's occasionally used as a racist term in the UK, not the specifics of that instance). It's nevertheless a marginal use compared to the mainstream use in schools etc

Except the modern history of the word is very much caught up in British imperialism and white supremacy in England. This has been demonstrated. It isn’t marginal.

Regarding the ID of English: BAME people may be less likely to ID as English but many do. However, I highly doubt that any ID as Anglo-Saxon. I do not think that switching to Early Medieval England in place of Anglo-Saxon England will make racism worse there.
