I 50 år har han forskat om och skrivit romernas historia: om förintelsen och slaveriet. Hans romska bibliotek är världens största. Men var ska det hamna nu? Följ med hem till Ian Hancock i Texas. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. -Han är ju den första internationellt kända, romska akademiska rösten och intellektuella rösten i det offentliga samtalet. Det säger Jan Selling, professor vid Institutionen för romska studier vid Södertörns högskola om Ian Hancock.-Han var inte först med att ta upp den romska förintelsen. Han var inte heller riktigt först med att ta upp antiziganismen, men att skapa det här sammanhanget i en berättelse om romsk frigörelse, det var banbrytande, säger Jan Selling. Ian Hancock föddes i London 1942, mitt under brinnande världskrig. Hans romska familj hade på hans pappas sida rötterna i Ungern. Många av släktingarna bodde fortfarande i vagnar, men reste inte runt.Hans pappa var resande försäljare av läskpapper och hans mamma skötte familjen. Han fick tidigt lära sig att ligga lågt med sitt romska arv, berättar han för reporter Agnes Lakatos från Sveriges Radios romska redaktion, Radio Romano, när hon besöker honom i hans hem utanför Austin, Texas.-Just keep quiet about it. Absolutely. Don't tell anybody what you are. På samma gata som familjen Hancock i London bodde några judar som överlevt Förintelsen. De berättade om romerna i koncentrationslägren, vilket väckte unge Ians nyfikenhet på sitt eget ursprung.Hans stora intresse för språk gjorde att han så småningom fick möjlighet till högre utbildning, vid University of London. Där fick han också rådet att inte vara öppen med att han är rom.-You wouldn't be taken seriously if you call yourself a Gypsy.Efter sin doktorsavhandling inom lingvistik i London, erbjöds han en plats vid University of Texas i Austin. Där forskade han och undervisade som lingvist i 46 år och skrev mer än 450 böcker och vetenskapliga artiklar. Men det dröjde länge innan han började forska om romernas språk och historia och uttala sig i romska frågor. För även i USA uppmanades han att dölja sin etnicitet. Idag är han en stark romsk röst, både inom akademin och i samhället. Under närmare 60 års tid som forskare har Ian Hancock också samlat på sig en enormt bibliotek med böcker på romani och böcker om romer på många språk.-Biblioteket är en unik källa för framtida forskning om romernas historia, säger Debbie Folaron, forskare vid universitetet i Montreol.Inom forskarvärlden väntar många nu spänt på vart biblioteket ska ta vägen i framtiden. I programmet får vi följa med in mellan hyllorna. Ett program av Agnes LakatosProducent: Lotta MalmstedtSlutmix: Mattias MiselliEtt program från 2024

Wusstet ihr, dass in Deutschland beim Holocaust der Nazis bis zu 1 Millionen Menschen der Roma- und Sinti-Volksgruppen ermordet wurden? Um die deutsche Gesellschaft zu verstehen, müssen wir verstehen, wie Deutschland die Roma und Sinti behandelt. Die Sinti und Roma werden noch immer von vielen abfällig als "Z*geuner" bezeichnet. Zur besten Sendezeit haben deutsche A-Promis im Fernsehen bei der Sendung "Die letzte Instanz" einfach Witze über den Zentralrat der Sinti und Roma gemacht. Wir haben einen der Gäste Micky Beisenherz konfrontiert und mit den Aktivistinnen Julie Halilic und Trauba Bendel-Reinhardt von dem Verein "Sinti Roma Pride" gesprochen, eine Menge gelernt und reflektiert, vor allem darüber, wie auch sehr viele kanackische Gesellschaften antiziganistisch, also roma-und-sinti-feindlich sind. Wusstet ihr, dass das Wort "Lollipop" von den Sinti und Roma kommt, oder dass Pablo Picasso, Charlie Chaplin oder Flamenco-Musik auch von den Sinti und Roma sind? Lernt alles dazu, in dieser Folge!

Rom e Sinti: l'olocausto che non si poteva nominare Questa settimana vi parliamo del Porrajmos, lo sterminio che hanno subito i Sinti e i Rom durante la seconda guerra mondiale...Thomas Fulli, (Associazione Sinti Italiani di Bologna) continua a raccontarlo nelle scuole e nella sua comunità...Il significato della parola Porrajmos è “divoramento” oppure “annientamento totale della persona”...Questa definizione fu coniata negli anni ‘70 da Ian Hancock, un intellettuale rom che viveva in Texas, con l'obiettivo di dare un nome preciso ad un genocidio di cui fino a quel momento si parlava solo in gruppi ristretti della comunità.....Thomas spiega infatti a Psicoradio che secondo gli anziani del suo popolo “Quando si parla dei propri morti se ne deve parlare sempre per il bene, non con il ricordo di ciò che hanno subito. E quando si toccano i morti si tocca anche la tradizione di questo popolo.”..Per conoscere meglio il Porrajmos dal punto di vista storico abbiamo intervistato anche Luca Bravi, docente dell'Università di Firenze, che sottolinea come “l'antiziganismo precede e poi proseguirà nella storia anche dopo il periodo di Auschwitz”. I rom e i sinti furono infatti prima identificati, schedati, per poi essere perseguitati durante il nazismo non per reati effettivamente commessi ma sulla base di una presunta pericolosità per l'ordine pubblico tedesco...Una parte dei superstiti rom e sinti si unì poi ai partigiani nella lotta per la liberazione...Bravi ricorda che anche in Italia ci furono alcuni campi di concentramento (tra cui quello di Agnone e Boiano in Molise). Dopo l'8 settembre del'43 il sistema dei campi italiani non regge più, non c'erano più le guardie, e una parte dei superstiti rom e sinti si unì poi ai partigiani...Le musiche che ascolterete in questa puntata (di Lida Goulesco e Django Reinhardt) sono legate alla cultura rom.
