      today I read blogpost from one of our colleagues, saying "much of what I'm saying here will be incomprehensible to many non-UK medievalists, especially the small group of them who are most vocal online". #medievaltwitter

      FYI, I lived in the UK most of my adult life. I was asked for my ID today when buying a beer at M&S, but when he saw my d.o.b. on my (UK) driving license, the guy started laughing. *that's* how long England has been my home now. #medievaltwitter

      what I do know is that the person most vocal, most eloquent about the mess that was ISAS/ISXX, and most vocal, most eloquent about the problems with the phrase "Anglo-Saxon", @ISASaxonists, is an expert on the subjects she tweets about. #medievaltwitter

      whether she tweets from Oxford, from Barking, from one or other of the islands of the North Atlantic, or from half a world away at any given moment, is irrelevant. #medievaltwitter

      so now this conversation has gone from "it's different in the US and UK" to "they really *can't* understand, because they're not from the UK". what's next? #medievaltwitter

      Replying to @SLevelt

      I have to say, I read the blogpost in question a while ago, and while I get part of where it’s coming from and do see some of these misunderstandings in my own field of modern British history where many of the US-based people can’t spend years and years here, it left me so cold.

      The stuff about US people not caring about the public and having no connection to the public/to places with long histories is infuriating since so many of the people in question are POC, and for Black people at least, many of us can never have that kind of connection to place.

      Replying to @seefryar @SLevelt

      In many ways, it was the worst of all the pieces I’ve read because it was so careful and moving and yet casually asserted this qualification for contributing to the field that eliminates POC and especially Black scholars from the field because they don’t connect to this place.
