We Are the Romani People: Volume 28 de Ian Hancock

We Are the Romani People: Volume 28: Interface Collection, cartea 28

Autor Ian Hancock
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 sep 2002
Written by a Romani (gypsy), this introduction to Roma life, health, food, culture, and society provides an insightful look at this despised but mysterious minority originating in India. Extensively illustrated, it looks at the people, their history since leaving India 1,000 years ago, and their rejection and exclusion from society in the countries where they settled. It offers candid advice on rejecting prejudices and stereotypes and getting to know the Roma as individuals, with short biographies of Roma in many different walks of life.
