He talks about trade with "Muslim nations" and about how the "history of India" is "fascinating." His problem isn't that he thinks only Europeans did things. He thinks PoC should study "their own history" and not "invade" English medieval history. This isn't a definition problem.

3) These ppl are tied to military movements and nationalist, "get out of our country" groups. The video ends with pics of him and others in military gear, with "Don't Tread on Me" shirts, etc. He says that ppl in the Post article should be thrown out of "our country."

4) They're def reading the comments, even if we aren't, and they're emboldened by them. He scrolls through the Post comments and reads them, crowing about how they shows that "most people" support them. The comments

5) They target PoC and women. He ignores me or attributes what I say to "them," while spending a great deal of time attacking Dr. Rambaran-Olm (and
@EileenAJoy a little). He keeps going back to Dr. Rambaran-Olm's pic and obsessing about her race. The harm is intersectional.1 vastaus 4 uudelleentwiittausta 66 tykkäystäNäytä tämä ketju -
6) He uses the ISXX statement of accepting diversity that they adopted after Hawaii to "prove" they can't possibly be racist ("look! it says so on their website! so they can't be racist!"). Like Sara Ahmed says, these statements protect the org while doing *nothing*.pic.twitter.com/Cq9vchr56P

Axel Folio, PhD, BFF of Mr. Bloodaxe @ISASaxonistsIt appears that the name ISAS has been taken over by white supremacists. People may want to let the existing board know that the symbol & name have been taken.#medievaltwitter. Also report this account for being fake, I assume ISXX doesn't want association with this. pic.twitter.com/vmHIDb4zn8Näytä tämä ketju3 vastausta 10 uudelleentwiittausta 55 tykkäystäNäytä tämä ketju -
#medievaltwitter, these are the people that are attacking PoC--especially WoC--who speak up about racism in medieval studies. They don't care about the def of medieval studies or whether history/art-history/whatever is included. They don't like to see PoC in these fields.1 vastaus 15 uudelleentwiittausta 83 tykkäystäNäytä tämä ketju -
He repeats talking points of some medievalists: PoC in the field are "thought police" from "1984" who want to "ban words," etc. Consider who you're supporting with these arguments. Tl;dr: Believe scholars of color about who medieval studies emboldens. Do the work. Fight back.

Tämä twiitti ei ole saatavilla.
Reading and sometimes listening makes some white people too uncomfortable. Facing the truth is hard and makes people accountable. It's safer *for them* to live in a bubble and block this reality out as noise.
Lataaminen näyttää kestävän hetken.
