Romani Rose

Published by:

An interview with Romani Rose, chairman of the German Council of Sinti and Roma. He rightfully states that Sinti and Roma are considered as scapegoats.

Totally Wrong …

Published by:

A Slovak article got their history totally wrong: Stating that until the 19th century Roma in the Austro-Hungarian Empire were mostly nomadic.
No, All Carpathian Roma were not. There were the Kale / Sinti in the Czech Republic and, after the abolition of slavery in Romanian lands the Vlax Roma, but by and large, the nomadism is a myth that Maria Theresia took from her German background.
Shame to perpetuate myths
