How does the Roma community preserve its culture and values while supporting Ukraine? How do volunteers and staff of the Ukrainian Red Cross Society provide first aid at the sites of enemy strikes, take part in rescue operations, and assist with evacuations? How can art help us understand neurodivergent individuals and shift society’s attitude toward vulnerable groups? This time in the Human Library, we will discuss identity, community power, and inclusion.
Books:
Yulian Kondur: “I am a Ukrainian Roma. Being part of a community where people support one another is important. I help those who need it most. Ask me — I'll tell you what it’s like.”
Yelyzaveta Koretska: “I’m part of the Ukrainian Red Cross rapid response team. We are the first to arrive at the scene. Ask me — I’ll tell you what it’s like.”
Anna Sapon (with Stanislav Turina): “We’re from atelienormalno — an inclusive studio that brings together neurodivergent artists. Ask us — we’ll tell you what it’s like.”
