Dropping into Mastodon to make sure my #historidon friends know that last night Lois Banner made unequivocally racist remarks at last night’s plenary of the Berkshire Conference (of which she was a founder). I was reminded recently that friends like @historianess might be out of the horrifying loop…

NB She was sharing the stage with several remarkable Black scholars at the time, who spoke eloquently against her (as did many others). But they shouldn’t have had to.
