Abstract: »Dr. Matkowska’s upcoming lecture will bring attention to the often overlooked subject of sexual violence against Sinti and Roma women in occupied Poland during World War II. Dr. Matkowska will shed light on the harmful and traumatic experiences of sexual abuse and violence endured by Romani women. Dr. Matkowska will also address the challenges faced by Romani women, stemming from both persecution and the historical exoticization and sexualization of their identity in European society since the 18th century. Her study delves into the agency and victimization of Romani women at the hands of oppressors during World War II.« (Source: Online Program)
