roma settlement, near kosice, east slovakia. Lessons

I did not have time to rate this folder so I chose this photo. It is very interesting, I like the body shadow in the background. Line drawn between - we can imagine - shadow's eye -> girl's head -> girl's eyes -> chalk/blackboard. May be a bit too tightly cropped on the left.

[been in Czech & Slovak Republics for almost two years in early 90's - very interested in discrimination against roms at this this time]

Hi Laurent, there is some detail on the teacher in the background in the original darkroom print but I have darkened and blurred her further so she cannot be identified. The word apartheid springs to mind when you see the Roma situation in Slovakia.
