During the workshop in December, each participant focused on various issues – the method adopted when making an interview, the legal implication of using Gypsy instead of Roma, the problems regarding the forced migration, the mythology of the pure identity, a survey regarding different forms of discrimination, a game testing how easy we function in a preconceived frame, what means to transform an anti Roma attitude into a radical gesture and a debate emphasizing the relation between representation and language.
The workshop had a final presentation, structured in a fragmented manner, in which the issues discussed during a week found their proper place.
One of the recurrent questions during the workshop was: if we talk about Roma communities should we have Roma people among us? Can we represent someone if he or she is not present? Can a proper representation be done in the absence of the subjected represented? But, in fact, what is our drive? To talk about the discrimination dynamics of the majority or to point to the situation of the minority? Or both?
