So I find this weird b/c the literary people are the ones whose disciplinary history is intertwined w/ philology. History is not, or you all wouldn't be using terms like class, gender, engineering. The main issue, at least w/ medievalists, is a historiography on race stuck

in pre-eugenicist, thus pre-Civil Rights definition, and thus stuck in a white supremacist historical methodology. It is not about the term. It is about decades of training & terrible scholarship.

It is a disciplinary issue. And I'm not defending her, just trying to see where she's coming from.

Then the discipline is complicit in presenting a problematic view of the period, if there's a sustained refusal to use the language of race that is available to us. It's then presenting a race neutral early modern period. We might be saying the same thing.
