Poland Racism

Published by:

The case of Rroma wanting to buy property in a small village in Poland in Kamionna is arbitrated by an Ombudsman. The Rroma had faced a fierce opposition to the purchase from the local population, most probably because of racism.
The Ombudsman declared the villagers “do not want Rroma” there.
Bad.

Robert Huber

Published by:

The former president of the Radgenossenschaft der Landstrasse, Robert Huber, died last week at the age of 83 after a long illness. He was one of the key Jenische activists in the early days, forcing the Swiss state to admit its racist policies of removing children from Jenische families (until 1972). He will be buried this coming Friday.
May he rest in peace.
