Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Yet it is just the opposite, masquerading ruthlessness and inhumanity-the age-old and altogether vicious practice of scapegoating-in a deceptive, leisurely abstraction. The phraseology is that of the oppressor, the ultimate murderer, not the victim.plain2017-05-02T08:31:57-07:00Mia Tignor732ec600de8396e51dd65ae9c3bef67cc89e9f43

It might be sound policy for LC catalogers to first query Black LC staffers before elevating antebellum plantation slang to primary head status.plain2017-05-02T09:25:14-07:00Mia Tignor732ec600de8396e51dd65ae9c3bef67cc89e9f43
