FROM OBAMA TO SAMARA: WHAT CHANGES DO THE SPANISH EDUCATION SYSTEM AND THE ROMA MOVEMENT HAVE TO MAKE SO THAT ONE DAY IT WILL BE POSSIBLE FOR A ROMA WOMAN TO BE PRESIDENT?


Autor: Rocío García, Araceli Silva, Montserrat Yuste, and Ramón Flecha

Volume: Vol 1. Numéro 1 & 2 -- Mai 2009

The American civil rights movement was started by an African American woman who was a participant in a popular education centre. This centre played a key role in the social transformations that led us to elect an African American president in the primary great world power. The Spanish education system needs progressive transformations which will contribute to overcoming the segregation and school failure of female Roma children. Roma women, as the driving force behind transformation in their population, are active agents when deciding on the type of schooling they want for the future of their children. Through associations, and hand in hand with the educational theories and practices provided by the international scientific community, in this article we present the transformations which many schools in Spain are carrying out in order to overcome the social exclusion of the Roma population. In this article we provide the foundations to build a movement of female Roma university graduates who, by including the voices of all of the women in their community, continue to be the driving force behind social transformation. In this way one day education and society in this country will have improved to such an extent that it will be possible for a Roma woman to be president.
