SUMMARY:Presentation:Can ‘Slavic’ Speak for Minorities? — Who Gets to Belong in Eastern Europe? - Talk 4
DESCRIPTION:In the last four decades the popularity of Balkan \"Gypsy\" music has exploded\, becoming a staple at world music festivals and dance clubs in the United States and Western Europe. At the same time\, thousands of Balkan Roma have emigrated westward due to deteriorating living conditions\, racist threats and increased violence. In this heightened atmosphere of xenophobia\, entrenched stereotypes have arisen amidst deportations and harassment. Roma\, as Europe’s largest minority and one of its quintessential “historic others\,” face the paradox that they are revered for their music yet reviled as people. This illustrated lecture will explore the challenges Balkan Roma face as well as their resilience in transnational sites.\n\nThis is a hybrid event\, please register here: https://myumi.ch/y14ew
