An interesting project – photos from one single Roma family taken over a period of 20 years – is presented in Arles, in Southern France.
Clearly, as usual, there are clichés in the pictures, but the scope is quite unique.

Summer pause on the news in France on Roma. A fire in a camp near Paris blocked one highway; in Triel sur Seine, a camp can stay – at least temporary; in Ivry, near Paris, 60 Roma were evicted from a squat; 13 families who were evicted a year ago in Montreuil are still on the street; in the North, an association is trying to find a suitable spot for a camp; and in the southwest, in Toulouse, residents complain of migrants squatting in their courtyard.

A bad article on petty criminals – this time Roma kids in Paris trying to get the pin of someone withdrawing money from an automated teller.
In the mind of the journalist – all Roma are like this.
BAD.
