Abstract
This study looks into the lives of women from the Domari Society of Gypsies in Jerusalem. Residing in a conflict-ridden city and exposed to multiple stigmas, the study exposes the structures that perpetuate the disempowerment of Domari women in Jerusalem. It looks into their neighbourhoods, the social services available to them, the education services that they receive, their opportunities in the labour market, and the marriage patterns in the society. The study adopted qualitative research methods to allow the research participants to narrate their stories in ways meaningful to them. The narratives were analysed through an intersectional lens to expose the multiple oppressions these women are subject to. The women’s stories reveal high levels of stigma and isolation, which have disempowered members of the community and perpetuated the cycle of their exclusion.
