    Some of you had a busy Saturday doing unpaid labor of engaging with racists to the betterment of your field(s), correcting myths/lies & expending your energy. BIPOC often do this work in your fields without thanks regularly, so start recognizing that, lift & back them up. 1/5pic.twitter.com/tPGiUMnFMG

        But today I thank you for rallying & pulling together. At the heart of this was not getting rid of fake accounts or a slanderous video. Ppl need to acknowledge & see the whiteness in the field as a problem & how this represention has sent the wrong message for a century+. 2/5

        The term Anglo-Saxon is so interconnected with whiteness and racism that many see us BIPoC as "invaders" of a field meant for you. This was at the heart of those attacks. Antiracism isn't just about representation& we have more to do but consider now why we rallied and 3/5

        what is angering these racists behind these attacks. So although we don't merely want bodies to up our diversity count within a racist system, understand why our representation matters especially in Early Medieval Studies. 4/5

        This is not unique to our field, but given that our field's name has been part of a racist past for so long, we need to shed this baggage. The public's understanding of what we do/who we are needs to change. And you need to support BIPOC in other fields too. #commit2change 5/5pic.twitter.com/l32giUWoMJ
