wasting ink on it. Changing slaveholder to enslaver seems more problematic. To me, enslaver conjures up images of someone catching slaves or first enslaving them, rather than someone who purchases and holds them. But I can see why one might want to emphasize the necessary ongoing subjugation and oppression. Either way, let's focus on being clear and sticking to the commonly used terms, rather than bending over backwards in either direction.

2437:, "People were not slaves, they were enslaved". It is true that usage of the old, baggage-laden terms is still broadly acceptable in academia, but so-called "political correctness" has always been about respecting and showing deference to the feelings of repressed minorities, or in other words, showing simple human courtesy. Not that it can't be taken too far, but I don't believe that is the case here.

2289:, published in 1999. Modern-day historical revisionists, especially here in the South of the United States where I live, have sought, and still seek to erase this history, and rail against the restoration of a very old usage that reclaims the human dignity of enslaved black persons and their descendants.

and going to page 9 of 499. I changed the

Of course, racists and neo-Confederates don't care what they think; even as recently as the late 1980s, the country store four miles down the road from where I lived still had a sign up over one of the restrooms that said "Colored". It wasn't even used as a toilet anymore, but they never bothered to

Until July 3, under "Birth family," this article stated, "his father was 'almost certainly white', according to historian David W. Blight in his 2018 biography of
Douglass." It cited Adam Gopnik's New Yorker article. This statement was false, because Blight's book did not say that Douglass's father

reverted all the changes made (e.g. from "enslaved person" to "slave") in Feb., with the comment "rm revisionist language". In general, I am in favor of language that does not define a person by one attribute ("slave"); if
Frederick Douglass was a slave, and nothing else, we would not be discussing
2106:
Good calls. Personally, I don't see much objection to the word slave, but I don't see a problem with 'enslaved person' either. Let's not try to make it a bigger issue than it needs to be: so long as clarity and precision are preserved, and direct quotes are left untouched, I don't see much point in
2076:
went through the article changing many if not all uses of "slave" to "enslaved person," and made similar edits to avoid "slave." I get the idea -- one's status should not define one -- but that many edits overdoes it. "Slave" is a neutral and acceptable word. I changed back two of the edits because

attribute. Both of these claims are bad arguments grounded in falsehoods. Both terms are used in reliable sources, so there is also not an external consensus to exclusively prefer one or the other. So we should welcome changes to simplify awkward phrasings or clarify ambiguities, but not to impose
2489:
Therefore, on July 3, I edited it to state, "his father was 'almost certainly white', according to Adam Gopnik, reviewing David W. Blight's 2018 biography of
Douglass." But this isn't quite accurate either, because Gopnik was not expounding on Douglass; he was falsely attributing the statement to
2258:
As I've said in other discussions of this usage of "enslaved", reactionaries and historical revisionists like to pretend, or believe, if they aren't familiar with the history, that the term "enslaved" used in this context is a recent innovation. It is not. For example, there are 19 instances of
2202:
I'm not aware of any policy or guideline on this point either. To be clear, 'enslaved person' is not a "neologism". It is perfectly ordinary
English that has been in use for centuries. On the other hand, the use of an ordinary noun such as 'slave' does not imply that this is a person's only
2170:
I don't see how substituing the simple term "slave" for the unwieldy neologism "enslaved person" is a rejection of
Douglass's importance as a thinker. Rather, it is a rejection of awkward and euphemistic language. Douglass had no qualms about using the word "slave", and neither should we.
2077:
they had inadvertently changed the meaning. I left the others alone, because there is nothing wrong with "enslaved person," but replacing every use of "slave" suggests that
Knowledge (XXG) is bending over backwards to be politically correct, and we don't want to convey that impression.

Carlstak, thanks for pointing out the language issue's connection with the age-long history of White people disregarding the feelings of Black people. But in order to cool down a bit, let me present the results of a random search in two academic publications I happen to have at hand:
2433:, not voices from the past from even such as Frederick Douglass. This movement to change the way we talk about the enslaved has emanated from black intellectuals such as Ta-Nehisi Coates, despised by white supremacists and Trumper types. For example, Coates states the case in
2229:
I have to disagree with the claim that "enslaved person" is "perfectly ordinary
English that has been in use for centuries". I'm sure you could find sporadic instances of the phrase in older literature, but it is only within the 21st century that usage has exploded: see

was a mistake -- probably from a later edition, not from the first
British edition. Had I known that, I wouldn't have changed it. But I am not going to revert what I did, because I don't think that it is important enough to go back through multiple edits.
2508:
In making this edit, I deleted the references to Blight's book and Gopnik's review of it. Blight is cited numerous times in the article, but Gopnik's review is not cited. Because it is a substantial work, I added it to "Newspapers and magazine articles."
2403:(2016) uses "slave" mostly as a modifier ("slave trade", "slave ship") or when reflecting historical sources (even outside of direct quotations). In other contexts, he seems to prefer terms like "enslaved Africans", but without being 100% consistent.
2493:
What Blight says is that Douglass said that his father was white. That is sufficient for our purposes. We can cite Douglass, without mentioning that Blight quoted him, and without mentioning Gopnik's false statement about what Blight wrote.

2411:(2018) always seems to use "slave". Being sure that Blight is neither racist nor neo-Confederate, I'd conclude that both uses are OK in modern academic language, while I personally prefer "enslaved people / person".
