Documentary above also really nicely shows the microculture of these people
- mpol 6y agoThe Roma are well integrated in the US? I saw a TV show where that was clearly not the case, there was a community where everybody was supposed to get married inside their own community. I don't think that is integration. Ofcourse I don't know how big this group was, relative to all Roma people in the US. This was some reality marriage show, I think on TLC or something. (yes, my then-girlfriend watched this :) ).
- true_religion 6y agoWell they are just as well integrated as the Jewish population or the Amish. Small communities where everyone married back into the faith is the only way to keep a small ethnic group consistent.
- dx87 6y agoIt's probably not a good idea to draw conclusions about an entire culture based on what you saw on a single episode of a reality TV show.
