A question for the group on dance transportation. Has any dance organization tried to get an auto charging station or stations installed at or near dance locations?

Hey Jeff,

Not **us** non-roma folk, thank you. My family on my mother's side were a part of the culture and none of us appreciate the folks telling us not to worry and that we don't need to be offended.

But Isaac… isn’t that what people on BOTH sides of the issue are doing? There are VERY few Roma in the contra community, and we’ve heard from very few overall on this issue.  Mostly it’s just us non-Roma folk arguing amongst ourselves about what WE perceive how a majority of the Roma people feel about this.  And that does apply to people who are both for and against using the term “gypsy” to describe a contradance move.  Aren’t we ALL saying what is right or wrong for people who are from another heritage?

And now I am bowing out of this controversy as it seems never-ending and very divisive.

Just because you don't think I should be offended about the word and how it reflects on my heritage doesn't mean you get to dictate whether I actually am. I would ask you not to decide for others how they ought to experience and respect their racial identity, thanks.
