Romani Liberation is a groundbreaking book that challenges the pervasive stereotype of Romani people as passive and incapable of responsibility and agency. The author also takes aim at benevolent but paternalistic attitudes that perpetuate the notion of Romani victimhood.
The book provides a comprehensive overview of the chronological phases of Romani emancipation in Sweden and other countries. It underscores the significant role of Roma activism in this process, featuring profiles of sixty Romani activists and protagonists, along with numerous original photos. The narrative is followed by an insightful analysis of the concepts of historical justice and the process of decolonizing Romani Studies.
Selling highlights the impact of historical contexts on the success of struggles against discrimination and for equal rights, emphasizing the crucial role of Romani activism as a prerequisite for liberation. The book is further enriched by a stimulating preface by international activist Nicoleta Bitu and afterwords by two prominent Romani advocates, politician Soraya Post and singer, author, and elder Hans Caldaras.
Through its powerful insights and compelling narrative, Romani Liberation offers a vital contribution to understanding the complex realities of Romani communities and their ongoing struggle for equality and justice.
