Happy International Roma Day!
My wish for this day is that non-Roma take a position of epistemological humbleness where we learn from Roma, and in so doing, become true allies.
Anyone who resists through centuries of oppression has important teachings for all of us.

Here’s our interview with Rowena Marin for @RomaPplsProject. It’s an honest discussion about our lives & identities, particularly surrounding marriage, divorce, independence, feminism, cultural resilience & pride, & intergenerational trauma.
Happy International Roma Day to all the Roma who celebrate their rich and diverse identities, and to all the scholars, activists and artists, Roma and Roma allies, who bring visibility to Roma rights, identity and history. A message from @cristiana_grg: roma-project.github.io/2022/…
