The Council of Europe is increasingly worried by the rise of racism in Germany. The article cites the press as one of the responsible actors in this situation, at least in the case of Rroma.
Worthy read!
Romani Rose, the president of the German Council of Sinti and Roma says in an interview that the values to which we have arrived at on the Holocaust, the persecution of minorities etc. are under threat.
The central council of German Sinti and Roma and his president, Romani Rose sharply criticised the concept of safe countries especially in the Balkan and for Rroma.
BRAVO!
Refugees are asking for a stop in the expulsions in Germany due to the “safe country status” of their countries of origins.
The Hamburg based organisation Roma and Sinti Union (RCI) is making a formal complaint the Germany’s top constitutional court on the declaration of Balkan Countries as being “safe”. Let’s hope this puts a stop to the exulsions!
Times are hard for those Rroma whose asylum applications have been refused following the declaration of Serbia as a safe country by Germany.
Worthy Read!
Rroma who are under threat of deportation to their former “home” country due to the “safe country” regulation are currently occupying a church in Hamburg. This is their last hope. And a shame for Germany, especially in the case of Rroma from Bosnia and from Kosovo, two countries that were ethnically cleansed with Europe watching and doing nothing.
Rroma in Hamburg have occupied a church as a protest against blanket expulsions based on the “safe country” principle. Especially when in the case of Kosovo, Bosnia, this is NOT ACCEPTABLE. Join the protest!
According to latest news, Rroma who are expulsed from Germany and return to Serbia will be denied any social help, according to a publication from Amnesty International.
This needs to be closely monitored!
A report on the so-called “Bildungsberater” in Germany, people who help the integration of Rroma children in schools. Most of them, as the person cited here, are Rroma themselves.
Bravo!
Germany is housing refugees in the former concentration camp of Buchenwald. Really.
Das Boot ist voll – the ship is full is an argument that has been used since a long time to avoid taking care of refugees, and, in the case of Germany, also to avoid having any Rroma around.
A chilling reading.
The anti foreigner attitude is common in the whole of Germany according to a recent research. This attitude extends to Rroma and Sinti who are, after all often enough Germans too!
SCARY
Barbara Stamm on refugees, migrants, and on the violence against them.
A MUST READ.
An overview of Germany’s proposal on refugees. Good but for one point: Safe countries. For Rroma, Balkan states are not really safe countries. On the contrary.
An article on refugees in Germany, the Balkan, and Rroma.
The Huffington post posted an article on refugees from the Balkan, with five issues that Europe needs to tackle if they ever want to get migration under control. Among these: Discrimination against Rroma in several Balkan Countries.
According to German sources, as many as 200’000 asylum seekers from Serbia will be asked to leave Germany very soon. Already 24’000 have been told to leave. Two third of theses refugees are most probably Rroma.
Some populists miss no occasion to be populist, prejudiced, racist, and spread idiotic information. This is the case here with Breitbart, a conservative US based news Network. Based on a fight between two Romanian Rroma families in Essen Germany, and the fact that a German newspaper also cited “Arabs” and criminals in the report, Breitbart makes a headline of criminal Gypsy and Arab gangs.
One should say STOP RACISM and START THINKING! This is not journalism, this is actual idiocy. It has to stop.
Around 40 Rroma from Romania and Bulgaria are currently camping the castle’s park. This is common in France, with the illegal camps, but is definitively new in Germany. To be watched.
