For those who are interested in what else you can read on the topic of historical denialism, comfort women history, and all the harassment visited upon digitally-engaged scholars since early 2021, here's a list of links, starting with yesterday's article: criticalasianstudies.org/commentary/202…
The article I've just published with @CriticAsianStds grew out of a first draft for a shorter introduction for those first coming to these issues (a broader audience), which I was invited to publish with @TokyoReview: tokyoreview.net/2021/05/ramsey…
Shortly after Ramseyer's original publication became A Thing that had clear, recognizably global implications, @JeannieSGersen wrote a fabulous piece about it for the @NewYorker: newyorker.com/culture/annals…
As I write in my CAS article, a simple retweet of the above piece is the reason that I found myself bombarded with right wing trolls all those months ago.
In May of this year @SzendiChelsea also wrote a fantastic piece on this for @thenation that put everything into historical and political perspectives: thenation.com/article/world/…
And of course, it is always worth tweeting the 36-page fact check of Ramseyer's article, so skillfully executed by @astanley711, @SayakaChatani, @SzendiChelsea, @dambaras, and @hannahjshepherd, which lays out why this is about ACADEMIC INTEGRITY. apjjf.org/2021/5/Concern…
And if you want to browse many of the statements, articles, and other kinds of coverage of this since the beginning of the year, Michael Chwe has a page for that: chwe.net/irle/
A major oversight on my part not to include this earlier--@astanley711's wonderful personal essay on experiencing harassment from these trolls is also a must-read: amy-stanley.com/blog-1/breakfa…
