If you ask me to review something on race in the early modern period, you better believe I’m looking at the bibliography first. #CiteBlackWomen #ShakeRace #LitPOC #AcademicTwitter

There’s a lot of columbusing going on with groundbreaking race work being credited to people who use race as a metaphor or people just suddenly deciding that race was a thing.pic.twitter.com/z6fI81AHCP

Yup. This is ever so familiar. For medievalists, I am like, and explain again why haven't you cited Heng as at the very least the most recent discussion.

I made a white woman super uncomfortable at NCS b/c she wanted to discuss race, but said she had read Heng's book but didn't agree, but then wouldn't cite her, but then wouldn't explain why her particular whatever was different, since it pretty much sounded like what Heng said.

Ugh this happens so much. I mean seriously people need to at least cite Heng and say what they are doing differently or whatever; the whole columbusing/gaslighting act makes no sense.

What makes it so wrong is a citation is the easiest thing to do, even/especially if you disagree. U don't have to write a diss. Just cite & go on your merry way. It's not that hard.
