Guy Halsall has been one of most progressive voices on the question of Late Antique & Early Medieval ethnicity. He has also been a great influence on my work, and he's a downright good man. The sheer level of abuse he has faced here online by certain academics is a disgrace. https://t.co/R1ukkDQtMv

Also, you & other white apologists are trying to say b/c Guy is "progressive" he can't be racist, sexist, etc. Wrong. Racism is structural. So is sexism. This is not about individual personality traits, or "niceness," it's @ how people address structures.

Guy addresses these structures as if he has the privilege & wherewithal to punch back b/c he is being critiqued for doing/saying something that shows his racism, sexism etc. So do tell us how "twat, stupid, imperialist" is "progressive." Waiting.
