Tayo Awosusi-Onutor is an Afro-Sintezza based in Berlin who is the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors. The transgenerational trauma in her family and life is just one of the topics discussed in the  last episode of the Podcast “Invisible Wound” of Sharon Ryba-Kahn, which is part of the project “Hakara – facing the transgenerational trauma” by AMCHA Germany. Tayo highlights the lack of knowledge about the Roma and Sinti community in Germany, even though many have been living on this country for centuries. She will speak with us about her work as an activist, author, educator, and singer. Her many activities all contribute to fighting against the ongoing racial and disciminatory injustices against the Roma and Sinti community – in other words making an invisible wound visible.
