Description

Roma und Sinti – die wahren Europäer*innen! Für den Podcast „Romatopia – Roma talk about their Utopia for Europe“ treffen wir interessante Menschen (Künstler*innen, Musiker*innen, Akademiker*innen, Aktivist*innen) aus ganz Europa. Sind Roma nicht – ganz im Gegenteil zu gängigen Vorurteilen – Vorbilder in Sachen Solidarität, kultureller Reichtum, transnationale Einheit trotz nationaler Besonderheiten – also ideale „role models“ für die „Idee Europa“? Wir sind gespannt auf die Utopien unserer Gäste für das Europa von morgen. Und: wir haben das ein oder andere Spiel vorbereitet... Unsere Gäste in Staffel Eins: Daniel Baker, Künstler, Kurator, Theoretiker (UK), Nicoleta Bitu, Soziologin, Aktivistin (Rumänien); Ethel Brooks, Soziologin, Gender Studies (USA) ; Zeljko Jovanovic, Jurist, Open Society Foundation/Roma Initiative Office (Serbien/Deutschland); Timea Junghaus, Kunsthistorikerin, European Roma Institute for Arts and Cultures (Ungarn, Deutschland); Lindy Larsson, Schauspieler, Sänger (Schweden); Saimir Mile, Aktivist, la Voix des Rroms (Frankreich/Albanien); Selamet und Kefaet Prizreni, Hip Hop Musiker (Deutschland/Kosovo); Romani Rose, Zentralrat Deutscher Sinti und Roma (Deutschland); Sandra und Semonida Selimovic, Schauspielerinnen (Österreich); Selma Selman, Künstlerin (Bosnien); Miguel Angel Vargas, Kunsthistoriker, Schauspieler (Spanien) Roma – the true Europeans!
