This podcast—led and produced by Samuel Vang, who is joined in discussion by Nizhooni Hurd and Maysie Poland—examines our discussion with Tayo Onutor at the RomaniPhen Archive, which is a self-organized project that produces and disseminates past and present knowledge from a feminist Rromani perspective by hosting events, conducting research, writing about Rrom*nja, collecting writing, sound, and images that "talk back" to the denial, slander, and gadjé appropriation of Rromani history.
Samuel Vang comes from Kennesaw, GA, a suburb north of Atlanta. He is a student at Colorado College, where he studies what has been described before (to him) as “the most edifying major” at the school, Feminist and Gender Studies. He is also a Bonner Fellow, a Men’s Leadership Initiative Mentee, a board member of the Intra-Fraternal Council for Sexual Safety, and he is the third highest ranking officer of his fraternity, the Beta Omega chapter of Kappa Sigma.
