He used offensive words for the Roma community, Oriola Maraschi reacts

In an Instagram post, she writes:

In a video I posted earlier, I unwittingly used a word that I did not know was offensive to the Rom community. I took the video off and wanted to apologize if someone felt hurt. I have great respect for every culture and community in my country. ”

This reaction comes after numerous comments she received on the network, from followers who asked her to change the term, or to remove the video, because it is racist and offensive to the Roma community.

Some of the comments were:

In the clothes used that “gabi” is cutting for “gabel”, which I don't and I'd better write if it's extremely racist and offensive.

Hello, Mrs. Oriola! My name is Dr. Caim Hadro and I am a professor of Romology studies at Bielefeld University. I saw a video of you in Paris where the “gabi in Laprare”, the word gabi is discriminatory for the Roma minority in Albania. Legally, your video is described as promoting discrimination in this case. And if it is known, it is condemned by law. I as the founder of the initiative put on my shoes, kindly ask you to remove that video with negative influence on the Roma minority, which is questioned. It would be good to even apologize to this minority for using that discriminated word. I hope we get a positive answer from you!
