Need a Jewish sensitivity reader, particularly for fantasy?
With a degree in English & a wealth of knowledge on antisemitism (including topics like historic antisemitism, blood libel, and mythologizing of Jews), we’re happy to consult/provide feedback.

This kind of behaviour is still considered normal. Racism against Romani people is viewed as acceptable. In America racism against Romani people is growing stronger by the day.
These racially discriminating signs were found in LA at a @Chevron gas station. These signs stereotype and profile the Romani community, and use a slur while doing it.
Romani racism goes unseen in America but it’s time to wake up. This is happening NOW in the USA.

Marcel was also Jewish. Why tf do y’all always leave this information out, it’s extremely important to the story. He literally was apart of the Jewish French resistance which is how he helped rescue Jewish kids.
Learning the details of Christian antisemitism is always heartbreaking, even when it isn't shocking.
In Switzerland, 1328, Jews were tortured into confessing to spreading the plague through poisoning wells--even though no such thing happened..The result was a mass murder.
"In 1215, the 4th Lateran Council accepted the doctrine of transubstantiation as official Church dogma..28 years after the Council declaration, the 1st accusation of "host desecration" occurred..The city's entire Jewish population was burned alive for allegedly torturing a wafer"

"Ostow observes that between 1348 and 1350, thousands of Jews were massacred and hundreds of Jewish communities destroyed based on the suspicion that the Jews were responsible for the Black Death".
Thousands of Jews killed, Jewish children forcibly converted.
Romani people are not your costume.
You do not have a Gypsy Soul.
We aren’t an aesthetic.
We are real people, enduring real prejudice & discrimination.
You can take off the costume when it’s inconvenient. We cant.
Please stop calling yourself a Gypsy if you aren’t.
