Angela Kocze on Honoring László Mária: A Remarkable Roma Leader
László Mária (1909–1989) was one of Hungary’s first well-known Roma intellectual women and a social-democratic politician. She made a big impact during her time, but little is known about her life and work today. Her legacy, kept in the Museum of Ethnography, shows how she helped create the Hungarian Roma Cultural Association (MCKSZ) in 1957.
