Unlike enslavement in the American colonies, the 500-year enslavement of the Roma on the territory of today’s Romania has been largely absent from analyses of the legacies of enslavement on structures of racial discrimination and exclusion. This is related to this population’s historical position in relation to Europe and Europeanness. Present in Europe for centuries, but still not considered of Europe or addressed as Europeans, the Roma are rarely part of Europe’s reckoning with either racism or enslavement. Such reckoning routinely restricts European racism temporally to the Holocaust, conflating racism with antisemitism, and relegates enslavement spatially to Africa and the Americas, equating enslavement with the transatlantic trade. Drawing on Michel Rolph Trouillot’s analysis of the Haitian Revolution as an “unthinkable history” made by enslaved Black people, Professor Boatcă argues that the European politics of memory will remain incomplete as long as the history and the present of anti-Roma racism, the legacies of Romani enslavement, and the implications of such histories for the (im)possibility of constructing an identity as Romani Europeans are deemed unthinkable in an Occidentalist white Europe.
