White humanities academics really want to say that the Humanities is going to be saved from COVID-19, neoliberal university, etc. by upholding the WHITE SUPREMACIST CURRICULUM. This is literally the entire argument of the far right white past ideology.

I am always critical of medieval studies, but I think that some white medieval studies agreed that maybe it's not such a good idea to be seen as part of the ideological historical purveyors of white supremacist warfare.

Do we all need to write one across the humanities @ Teaching The Humanities in a TIME OF WHITE SUPREMACY to get the message across. No handwringing, no both sides, no whitewashing, no excuse that somehow CRT or reckoning w/ colonialism is why the neoliberal uni is cutting you.

That is, by the way, called "racist scapegoating"... you have all seen it. But sure, go ahead and use rhetorical fallacies for your academic white arguments.

Let us be clear, the White supremacist logics, like white supremacy generally, is what is going to destroy your field. Do not decide to deflect and scapegoat BIPOC CRT scholars who are asking for racial reckonings.
