No room for clichés - Jonny on life as a Sinti in Kiel

German Tales Romanes Video
In Kiel, Jonny Kreuzer shows how language, education and open spaces can break down prejudices and make Sinti culture visible.

Jonny grew up bilingual - German and Romani - and reports from Kiel about places like the Maru Temm housing project, where community is created and families feel safe. He talks about hurdles such as looking for accommodation by surname and everyday prejudices. But also about moments of welcome when people listen openly. Culture is evident in everyday life: music, large gatherings, Christian festivals without an invitation. As an educational advisor, he accompanies children, encourages them and promotes education instead of pigeonholing.
