Gypsies in Argentina

[sina]

I'm interested in finding out more about the gypsies Roma or Romani people(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_people) in the country of Argentina. This would be concerning both historical as well as contemporary accounts, in the news, in popular media, in literature, and in the culture in general.

As with many repressed groups of people lying on the fringes of society, I haven't had too much luck finding information, though it would probably help if I were in Argentina.

Any help in finding resources is much appreciated - in English or Spanish is fine. besitos, tchuessies!

Did you see the Spanish Wikipedia article? It looks like it's not quite the same as the English version.
