Sweden: To Live in Two Worlds

A Swedish exhibition: To Live in Two Worlds.

From an ad in the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter in January 2007:

To Live in Two Worlds
Is it true that Jews have a lot of money and big noses?
Do the Romi people* indeed live in caravans?
Is it true the the Sami people ** live in tents and only eat reindeer meat?

What are your prejudices about these three minorities?
In the exhibition "To Live in Two Worlds" you will have the
chance to listen to voices from young Jews, Romis and Samis
in order to help you correct your prejudices and find out
what these young people feel about their identities.

A Swedish text about this exhibition:

* Romi is now the more accepted term for what we used to call Gypsies.
** Sami is the term used by the ethnic group that lives in Northern Norway; Sweden and Finland. They themselves mislike the name Lapps.
This exhibition will travel around Sweden from south to north; and is, till January 27th 2007 to be viewed at the Jewish Museum in Stockholm http://www.judiska-museet.a.se
