Parno Grast

Parno Grast

An article in the Vojvodina Press on the Hungarian Roma group Parno Grast from Pasab. “Parno Grast” means a white horse – white color is a symbol of purity, and the horse of freedom. The performers sing in Hungarian and Romanes, even within the same song. The group’s musical roots come from their immediate surroundings, so far they have collected many melodies from Pasab and its surroundings, in the Sabolč-Satmar-Bereg district.

They have a concert in Novi Sad today.

Slovenia, Mayors, and Roma

The Community of Municipalities of Slovenia (SOS) wants to start talks with the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Public Administration on providing additional funds for the municipalities, but both have not yet responded to their calls. The regional meeting was hosted by Novi Sad mayor Gregor Macedoni.

At the meeting, he also drew attention to the Roma issue and problems with illegal border crossings. Regarding the integration of the Roma community, Macedoni warns that it should be carried out urgently with the help of the state, especially since it can also serve as a model for the integration of other groups, for example labor migrants. “This is why we believe that the state will have to listen more to the municipalities of the southeastern region and Posavija,” he said.
