It might be sound policy for LC catalogers to first query Black LC staffers before elevating antebellum plantation slang to primary head status. plain 2017-05-02T07:24:19-07:00 1986 Mia Tignor 732ec600de8396e51dd65ae9c3bef67cc89e9f43

And fourth, the appearance of “Criminal Justice, administration” as the sole “xx” lends the term, as well as the practice it denotes, a certain dignity, if not if not legitimacy. plain 432982 2017-05-02T09:22:33-07:00 1983 Mia Tignor 732ec600de8396e51dd65ae9c3bef67cc89e9f43

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. plain 2017-05-02T08:31:57-07:00 1984 Mia Tignor 732ec600de8396e51dd65ae9c3bef67cc89e9f43

Such an action is beneath the dignity of the Library of Congress. Rather than engage in revisionist history, the Libary should base its decisions on sound judgement, taking actual history, present facts, and future research efforts into account. media/Republican Letter to Congress.pdf plain 2017-05-02T07:54:37-07:00 05-19-16 Mia Tignor 732ec600de8396e51dd65ae9c3bef67cc89e9f43

LOC updated the GIPSY LCSH in 2000 to Romanies, citing that the term was now the preferred terminology "among scholars and Gypsy groups" (LC Collections Policy Statements, 2000). plain 2017-05-02T08:23:06-07:00 2000 Mia Tignor 732ec600de8396e51dd65ae9c3bef67cc89e9f43
