In the city of Perpignan, located in the southern French region of Occitanie, a form of social division affects the Saint-Jacques neighborhood. This area, historically inhabited by the Gitane community—often referred to as Roma or Sinti people—has a population of between 4,000 and 7,000 residents. The Gitane people have lived in this area since the mid-20th century, and their presence has shaped the neighborhood's identity. In the first episode of the podcast Silences de l'antitsiganisme, two grandmothers from the area share their experiences of how entries, or access, to certain spaces are organized. They describe the subtle and often informal ways in which the community navigates daily life amid the challenges of discrimination and marginalization. Their stories provide insight into the lived realities of those who have faced exclusion based on their cultural and ethnic background. The podcast explores the broader issue of antitsiganism, which refers to prejudice and discrimination against the Roma and Sinti peoples. These communities have faced systemic challenges across Europe for centuries, including forced displacement, social exclusion, and legal discrimination. In Perpignan, these issues are reflected in the dynamics of the Saint-Jacques neighborhood, where the Gitane community continues to fight for recognition and inclusion. Through personal narratives and historical context, Silences de l'antitsiganisme aims to raise awareness about the ongoing struggles of the Roma and Sinti communities in France. The podcast highlights the importance of understanding the past to address current inequalities and promote social justice. By giving voice to those who have been historically silenced, the series contributes to a broader conversation about identity, belonging, and human rights.
