Name. Group. Permission.
When working with art, music or stories from a minority, Indigenous, or Roma community, three things matter:
1. NAME — credit the individual creator, not 'a Roma musician'. 2. GROUP — name the community of origin if appropriate (e.g., 'Sámi yoik tradition, Norway') without flattening it. 3. PERMISSION — sacred and ceremonial material is often NOT for outside use. When in doubt, ask the community's own cultural body.
The principle: do not become wealthy or famous from a culture whose people remain marginalised.
