1) I've seen some confusion online about the ethnicity of Young Justice's Madame Xanadu; various websites assume her to be black (I assume because she's voiced by Cree Summer?), but in the comics she's Romani and her skin-tone, to me at least, looks far closer to a Romani person than a black person, so is she Romani, black or another ethnicity entirely?

2) On a similar note, is YJ's Dick Grayson Romani? At the time the show was originally in production his Romani heritage was established but only in one story from after you stopped regularly keeping up with comics (2001 I believe?), so I could totally understand it being accidentally skipped over during research at the time, but in the years since then they've started emphasising it more, and since the show's no stranger to implementing characters or concepts from after its creation into the show's lore in the revival era, I could see that happening here too
