Gypsies
[iGypsies [in the State of Maryland] must pay jurisdictions a license
fee of $1000 before settling or doing businessn the State of Maryland...Sheriffs
are paid a $10 bounty for any gypsy they arrest who pays the $1000 fee
after he is arrested (Logan, 1976)....It is illegal in Pennsylvania
to be a Gypsy without a license ... Any Gypsy who insists on being what
he was born - a Gypsy - without a license, is liable to up to $100 fine
and 30 days injail.(Smart, 1969).Texas law refers to "Prostitutes,
Gypsies and vagabonds" in the same breath, and charges the Romany
people $500 to live there (Bernardo, 1981:108).Be it enacted by the
General Assembly of the State of Indiana, that it shall be unlawful
for any band of Gypsies..and in New Jersey it was till 1998.
Lawmakers Approve Repeal Of Law Regulating Gypsies.
From the The Pariah Syndrome
by Professor Ian Hancock.
_
''I was shocked when I learned earlier this year
that the law was still on the books,'' said Mrs. Cruz-Perez, a native
of Puerto Rico who was the first Hispanic woman elected to the New Jersey
Legislature. ''This is a multiracial society, and even though no one
would now ever think of enforcing such a law, it's embarrassing.''NYT

Our Garbage Dump, Our Hell and Heaven is a dramatic collage in
which I try to fathom why it is still hard for us humans to see
we miss so much by hating. It is also a real cry for help from the people
of Pata-Ratului, Transylvania, Romania, who live on a garbage dump that
shuts down in a few months because it doesn't meet European Community
ecological standards. Thus soon the Roma settlement will be buldozered
down and its people will be displaced. Some of its scenes are based
on interview.
