[[Jenny Everywhere#With A.T.D.|Jenny Everywhere]], in an incarnation who is an amateur boxer in 2010s France as well as a volunteer with {{w|International Movement ATD Fourth World|A.T.D.}}, reflects on the story of the 1930s boxer [[Johann Trollmann]], the man with the ''Bras de Fer'' (or ''Iron Arm'') as she leaves the gym where she trains as a boxer herself. Though beloved by the public, Johann was also a ''{{w|Sinti|Sinto}}'' ''{{w|Romani people|Tsigane}}'' (often nicknamed ''Zigeuner'' because of his ethnicity), making his existence a hazardous one as the Nazi regime ramped up. at that place and time. His mobility and skill lets him win a championship match, to the displeasure of Nazis. Ordered not to dodge so much lest he be banned from the sport, in his next match he stands immobile in defiance (after dyeing his hair “Aryan-blond”) and allows himself to be pummeled. Banned anyway, Johann is later drafted and sent to the eastern front, and later to a concentration camp, where he is eventually killed. As she finishes mentally reviewing the story, Jenny finishes her motorcycle ride and arrives at her destination, where she is to hold an A.T.D. “reading workshop” for a group of poor children. She decides to tell them a version of Johan's story, thinking it important that he not be forgotten and that the children grow up without prejudice against Romani people. | |||

This Jenny speaks French, although she still uses the English ''Jenny Everywhere'' name, and is active in 2010s France, being a box enthusiast and [[A.T.D.]] volunteer. She describes herself as liking “to remember, to meet new people, to eat [[toast]], to say 'No' to people, to drink guava juice, to read stories aloud, and to gaze at the flowing darkness of the night”. She displays no [[shift]]ing powers or dimensional awareness on-page, although neither is she explicitly depicted as merely a mundane human. | |||
