Logo for The Essay - Freedom - Episode 4

Richard Rai O'Neill reflects on the Romany philosophy of freedom - both the ideal and the reality. Born into a large Romany family in 1962, Richard's grandmother taught him that a Romany life was about freedom in order to enjoy health and love. He also explores a more pragmatic aspect to Romany philosophy that says that in a tough financial period, it's time to move on to a different place as a new place brings new luck.
