Silvia Agüero (born, Madrid, 24 August 1985) is a Spanish Roma feminist writer and human rights activist who recovers the memory of the oppression of gitano people.
Silvia became aware of what it meant to belong to Romani society and culture and created an intercultural association led by Roma people: Pretendemos Gitanizar el Mundo (We intend to Romaize the World).
[1][2] She leads the Revolución de las Rosas Romaní (Revolution of the Roma Roses), an activist group against abuse during childbirth.
[4] Among her inspirations are the flamenco singer La Paquera de Jerez, the lawyer Pastora Filigrana, and Rosa Cortés, the protagonist of the Great Gypsy Round-up of 1749.
[11] In 2022, together with the actress and director Nüll García, and with the acting support of Pamela Palenciano, Agüero created the theatrical monologue, No soy tu gitana at the Teatro del Barrio that deconstructs the historical public image of gypsy women from 1499 to the present.
