France, TV, and Roma

Published by:

Another TV series, this time French about the French police. But … It showcases all stereotypes. On Roma, for example, it shows a Roma camp whose inhabitants send their children to the city to steal and to prostitute themselves… It is not better on other minorities.
In brief, a total NO G).

Poznan, Dogs, and Roma

Published by:

An old story is re-appearing in the Polish Press: The story of dogs (and other animlas) living in extremely bad conditions in Roma camps, this time around the city of Poznan. Some of the pictures in the article are old (the one from the dog on matrasses in a box is from last year).
Theme: Roma mishandle those poor dogs, and the dogs are removed. Not a word about the fact that these dogs do not live any better or worse than their owners.
Bad.

Netflix: Suburra

Published by:

A new Italian Netflix series, “Suburra” showcases the Mafia and its life. Unfortunately, they also include a young Rom who is one of the central figures of the series.
Bad – as it reinforces the stereotypes.

French Chronicle …

Published by:

Ten years of action – this is the title of a manifestation that happened on October 7th in Lille in the north of France to celebrate the engagement of several associations helping Roma.
In other parts of France, other news: In Antibes, in the South of France, an association helps Roma children doing their school homework; and in Paris, videos from several artists, one of which shows work with children from a Roma camp can be seen.
More in line with the usual French News, 3 camps are closed in Montigny, near Paris; earth is piled on a site near Paris to prevent the creation of a new camp; a policeman wounded by a dog during an intervention in a Roma Camp in the North of France; the case of a pensioner who shot and killed Roma burglars in the South of France is on trial; and finally a doom ad gloom set of news from the extreme rightist Breizh Info – always on the forefront of assimilating Roma and migrants to criminals.
