Roma is the more PC-term for “Gypsies.”
thanks
The Roma are from India. They migrated out of India into Europe and were called Gypsies. My dad was 13 years old in 1930, lived in the Polish section of Chicago and had a negative view of the Gypsies. I grew up in north west Georgia, USA and have had zero 1st hand knowledge of the Roma. The Cher song tramps and thieves may be partly accurate. Of course, there were lots of weird behaviors going on in 1930. Great Depression and such.
