The magazine is using the term ‘anglo-saxonne’ on their IG, and AOC doesn’t know if it’s deliberate, tongue-in-cheek or ignorant.
Specifically, it reads: “Deuxième partie de notre série mode, qui met à l’honneur le sport au grand air, à la sauce anglo-saxonne.”
The term Anglo-Saxon heritage has a strong association with European white pureness and is rarely used today. That’s a vote for ‘clueless’.
Palmer grew up in Birmingham, England, where Prime Minister Winston Churchill said in 1943: “Why be apologetic about Anglo-Saxon superiority, that we were superior, that we had the common heritage which had been worked out over the centuries in England and had been perfected by our constitution?”
Whoa! We never heard this comment before. As usual, AOC plunges into the deep waters of meaning, educating ourselves with this article from Smithsonian Magazine: The Many Myths of the Term ‘Anglo-Saxon’
