The voices of Romani women have too long been ignored in our
struggle for recognition as Roma and I believe this collection of
articles from a cross section of female activists and scholars will
do much to redress this situation. I highly recommend this
important anthology of Romani women authors."
--Ronald Lee, LL.D, author of The Living Fire"A Romani Women's
Anthology: Spectrum of the Blue Water integrates various Romani
women's voices into a stimulating scholarly/artistic project. It
exposes narratives from different locations and standpoints to
illuminate the racialized and gendered positions of Romani women.
This book is essential for anyone interested in the fragmented and
disparate perspectives of Romani women. This is a unique book that
will inspire us to learn more about Romani women."
--Angéla Kóczé, Visiting Assistant Professor, Wake Forest
