Don't Call Me Gypsy

Most Americans don't even realize the word Gypsy is an ethnic slur, let alone understand the centuries of legal and cultural machinery designed to crush the people behind it. In The History of Antiziganism in the United States and Canada, Dr. Cassandra Shenigo tears apart the romanticized folklore and criminalized stereotypes that have kept Romani communities socially isolated and structurally invisible across North America. Moving past comfortable myths and individualized prejudice, this book delivers an uncompromising critique of how state laws, media tropes, and institutional neglect built a system of quiet erasure. It is an unvarnished, empirical post-mortem on anti-Romani racism—exposing the mechanics of marginalization that society still refuses to talk about.
