congrats! ✨actually makes me so happy there are also people from czechia (my country) and slovakia because racism against Romani people is really gross here😿

Congratulations! That's a huge deal and even bigger honor! Most people don't even know that Romani's were included in the holocaust, they never get mentioned unless it's coming from a Romani

Thank you Florian! I really appreciate you making a change for us. I was fighting all my life with a sense of a lost identity as the aftermath of our history and the living patterns resulting from it. Love you Prala

This is amazing, congratulations! I can't wait to watch this series and hear those people's stories! This is really important and good work you're doing, and I know it's a weird thing to say to a stranger on the internet and I don't know if it's really the right word, but I'm proud of you, as a content creator. So many people who have probably never even thought about Romani people have learned about them through your videos, and I hope many more will follow!

I'm looking forward to being absolutely devastated by this when it releases. Long overdue for these voices to be heard.

This isn't easy work to take on emotionally, please be sure to check in with yourself and practice a lot of self care. I look forward to hearing these voices and am so grateful that you have a platform to share them with the necessary care and context.

EXCITING NEWS!! I have partnered with the Yale University Fortunoff Video Archive for Holocaust Testimonies, in collaboration with the European Roma Institute of Arts and Culture, as a Roma Holocaust Voices Fellow to create a brand new mini-documentary series on my channel showcasing 4 NEVER BEFORE SEEN Romani survivor testimonies from their archives that will be translated for the first time from Romani to English. This new series will premiere soon in 2025 and will include music and artwork from Romani artists, interviews with Romani historians, and exclusive footage straight from the archive that has never been available to the public before!
Join us in this important and exciting journey in giving the Romani survivors of the Holocaust a voice and allowing Romani people to tell our own stories in an authentic and impactful way. Each episode of the series, we will cover a new story, allowing you to hear these stories that never got out to the public until now, Romani survivors are so often neglected and forgotten, now is the time to change that and hear their impactful stories that will stay with you for a lifetime!
