Romani Americanism

[Nathaniel Grann]

Hello!

My name is Nathaniel Grann. I am photojournalist living the DC metropolitan area and am currently working on a photo project with the Corcoran College of Art & Design around the lives and culture of Romani Americans and Canadians. I'm very curious to see how Romani Americans and Canadians are treated within North America as well as the cultural traditions within context of North American culture, if possible to even contextualize such contrasting cultures.

It would be great to hear if anyone has thoughts about this approach or suggestions on possible readings or contacts that might help me out. Maybe this should be placed in the discussions thread but I didn't want to spam you all,but any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Nate

I write to let know about plans for the Jubilee World Roma Congress taking place in London next summer [1-5 August]. For the first time it will be possible for all members of our communities (over 16) to vote electronically in the elections in connection with this Congress, and whosoever wishes to stand as Candidates.

Democratic Transition will bring greater legitimacy and accountability and a democratic process allowing all to participate and work together for better recognition of the Roma Nation and the defeat of "anti-Gypsy" racism.
