Abstract

An interview with Ilona Ferková about the various forms of her lifelong commitment to the Romani community. The discussion briefly touches on her history as an author of prose works and co-creator of theatrical productions addressing the historical and lived experiences of Roma from Czechoslovakia but focuses primarily on her community activism. She discusses her commitment to the Roma, the public celebration of Romani culture, and the need to address the problems faced by Romani men and women - a perspective also informed by the cause of women’s emancipation - as a legacy of the environment in which she grew up: her immediate family and the examples set by people who played significant roles in the history of the postwar Romani community in Rokycany.
