Gypsy TV in Bulgaria | Raising Awareness

Gypsy TV is an new commercial media venture to raise awareness about Roma culture and identity. Located in Bulgaria, it focuses mostly on Roma living in Bulgaria. Often the Roma culture and traditions in Bulgaria are overlooked internationally and also nationally. This station is an excellent viewing glass for Romani culture and traditions in Bulgaria. Its a bare bones production that will seem to most Americans somewhat amatuerish. But its worth tuning into every once a while to listen to the music programs. Most of the programing isn't in English, so if you hit it at the wrong time its not really going to be that captivating.

Gypsy TV – Life as a song

Please let me know if the video stream does not work outside of Bulgaria. Its playing loud and clear here.
