It's very interesting that people who are asked to consider equity in the field lash out in this way. Not only that, I had no idea that he was being so malicious since he blocked me. I tried to have exchanges with him & he refused, but he continues to stalk.

This is common in antiracist work. People who don't like the message reverse it & antiracist BIPOC are called racist, violent & bullies. This is how racism works.

It's also part of racial trauma. Posting blackface as a joke or not is still racist.

You will find this not surprising in the UK academy
@PriyamvadaGopal and@OlivetteOtele but some of these wyte medievalists who follow you also think that it's just a joke to post Blackface & harass BIWOC. The problems of racism in the British academy run DEEP!#racismShow this threadThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I'm not sure why anyone would think this is okay. This sort of racism is appalling.

Is there anything those of us outside academia can do? Report him on Twitter? File a complaint with his department?
-
Those are good questions. Well, firstly that tweet of his with Blackface really needs to be removed. It's racist & he should know better. Don't report his acct. However, it IS targeted harassment & this really has gone on long enough. His department should know about this.

Has he deleted his account? Step 1: Shitpost. Step 2: Claim to be a victim and delete account

You might be blocked, everyone else on medieval twitter is.
