Cambridge University Claims Anglo-Saxons Never Existed

Fact checked
ANGLO SAXON

In an effort to fight ‘nationalism’, Cambridge University is teaching its students that the Anglo-Saxons did not exist as a distinct ethnic group.

The University says it aims to ‘dismantle the myths’ around British and English identities as it seeks to make its teaching more ‘anti-racist’ according to a report by the Telegraph.

Erasing the English?

The Department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic (ASNC) at England’s Cambridge University is actually attempting to dismantle the very ideas inherent in the title of its own department, claiming that the Anglo-Saxon ethnic group is a racist concoction, which is – apparently- meant to stoke British nationalism.

Breitbart reports: The woke academics claimed that the purpose of its anti-English stance is to make its history lessons “more anti-racist”, the department said according to the broadsheet, adding: “One concern has been to address recent concerns over use of the term ‘Anglo-Saxon’ and its perceived connection to ethnic/racial English identity.”

“In general, ASNC teaching seeks to dismantle the basis of myths of nationalism… by showing students just how constructed and contingent these identities are and always have been,” they continued.

Apparently unsatisfied with dispelling the supposed “myth” of the Anglo-Saxon people, the university department went on to claim that there was never a “coherent” ethnic identity for the peoples in England, Ireland, Scotland, or Wales.

According to the paper, one Cambridge lecturer claimed that the term “Anglo-Saxon” has been wrapped up in “indigenous race politics”.

It comes amid a wider movement in academia to link the historical group of Germanic Angles, Jutes, and Saxon peoples who arrived after the end of Roman controlled Britain and the conquest of the Normans with alleged racism, which many claim has been fostered in America.

The attempt to brand the term as toxic has succeeded to such an extent that the International Society of Anglo-Saxonists decided in 2019 to change its name to the International Society for the Study of Early Medieval England due to “the problematic connotations that are widely associated with the terms ‘Anglo-Saxon’.”

The name change came shortly after the resignation of Canadian academic Dr Mary Rambaran-Olm from the organisation, who later claimed that the study of Anglo-Saxon history is fraught with “inherent whiteness” and that the “Anglo-Saxon myth perpetuates a false idea of what it means to be ‘native’ to Britain.”

Cambridge’s claims about the history of England have sparked a heated backlash in Britain, with political commentator Paul Embery writing:  “Just imagine a university saying the same thing about, say, Aboriginal Australians, Maoris or Native Americans.”

Former UKIP politician turned host of the Lotus Eaters Podcast, Carl Benjamin said: “We aren’t having it, you smarmy pseudo intellectual subversives. We, the English, exist. We have existed for a thousand years, and that isn’t going to change now. No discussion. No dialectic. We are the English and we live in England. Simple as.”

    The brits are claiming they have no right to their nation because they never actually existed.

    They can teach “critical race theory” but can’t exhibit basic “critical thinking”.

    • A Briton is still legally ac slave of Rome
      Basic history Rome conquered England up to Hadrians Wall, that stone wall that s still there.
      They moulded English culture created it set up its legal systems.
      They made it Catholic later after they killed all the Christians, the Waldenses, and took over being Christian new world empire with the Pope as Caesar.
      They moved to Venice and set it up as the trade centre. It went mouldy and full of rising damp, health trap of bacteruascandvfungii, so they moved to England and took control there and set up the British Empire But it was all roman really. It got complicated because of some resistance movements within england, and Europe, some protests, but basically its all roman again now And so is America. Bottom line its the Romans running it all NOW .
      New York was set up with the Empire State Building as a beacon to the roman world ancient families, like a statement of ascendency over America really and the world.
      Oh its all so basic grade 3 social studies only complete fools can’t join the dots
      Anyway bottom line the world’s full of complete fools to dumb to see or hear or think and they don’t even know it. So a failed race, rejects, corrupted poisoned eirgbdrinknand food and drugs and brainwashing and propagandas and Secrecy and greed and selfishness disguised as community values.
      Idiots.
      There’s only one resolution.

    • It’s Londinium and it’s buoy in the river Thames which comes from Babylon on the river thamuzz. That’s why some call it the new Babylon. And the Vatican invented Islam and that’s why its so similar to the bible. The old testament Just 9 commandments and a few other changes More progressive and feminist really because its a lunar worship of the night the feminine forces. Catholicism sun so gold and Islam’s moon so silver as their metals.

  2. Issac’s sons = saxons. Part of the “lost tribes of Israel” who spread out world wide. Satan ALWAYS lies & seeks to hide the truth from us as it will verify God, His creation & what His Word.

  3. I never believed the English history they shoved down our throats Somehow I just felt it was all made up rubbish to create compliance.

  4. So then, who’s running the United States of America, besides the Anglo-Saxons and their Jewish Occultist Allies?
