Latest Episode
Danny sits down with Professor Hristo Kyuchukov for a conversation about racism towards to the Roma people. Hristo, who specialises in Romani linguistics, is himself Roma and shares the trials and tribulations living as a Rom in Europe. He takes us on a journey from as early as the 10th Century to tell us about the persecution that the Roma endured throughout history, up until the almost-forgotten Roma Holocaust. Rather poignantly Antiziganism is still ever-present today in both Western and Eastern Europe; it is no wonder that after years of Matteo Salvini's anti-Roma rhetoric studies show that 83% of the Italian population hold unfavourable views towards them. Danny and Hristo discuss what can be done to challenge perceptions and to change the difficult reality of living as a Rom in Europe today.
