In search of pastures green

A case for "cultural appropriation." 
Maksim Troshin, obviously not a Romani, sings Sare Patria:


Our grasslands wither and we travel forth
in search of pastures green. Our wagons full,
the wanderers, the nomads of this Earth,
we roam, submitting to the constant pull
of yet another place, another chance,
a greener valley…When sometimes we spy
what looks like home — we light bonfires and dance,
and sing old songs beneath the dusking sky.


Actress Svetlana Toma (not a Romani) as Rada:




Live for the Love of it,

Sasha A. Palmer (aka Happy)
