: I have a question for any Rom/ Romni on this
: page. I have recently been informed that I
: am not wanted here; that I am not really a
: Romni at all, regardless of my blood. I am
: told that being Romni is not a matter of
: blood at all, but based solely on
: acknowledgment by other Roma. I am told
: that not one Rom or Romni here would ever
: consider me worthy of being Romni.

: I recently published an article called
: "Always Romani, but Never a Gypsy"
: in the Dissident Voice. It is still up, as,
: until Saturday, is my very brief appearance
: on Rokker Radio, an English Romani program.
